MAKING
An abandoned railway station by the name of Porta Romana in one of the most characteristic districts in Milan, a wide space, completely untouched. A strip of concrete that Expo 2015 decided to populate for some months. A very long line of containers host every kind of temporary shop.
And it is in this fusion/collision of sounds and colours that the idea of GIASS was born. Five people, one different from the next, but all still friends, and among them a barman making a different/special/ kind of gin and tonic, using various botanicals and a unique method: soaking the infusion in a dishwasher for 30 minutes at 65 Celcius.
The result is astonishing and so their desire to do something together starts to form.
So they bought a small 3 litre alembic and stared selecting 18 botanicals, a creative venture to search for a versatile and/yet balanced taste. This was how the real/original formula of the first London Dry Gin from Milan was made. Naturally it then made its way to a larger and more professional alembic, and yet it still preserves its artisanal spirit.
