Gin Primo was born in Romagna and its name comes from a local tradition. In Italy, tradition wanted parents to give their firstborn the name Primo (the First). So when Federico, a young man from Cesena, decided to create his first gin, he decided to call it Primo, hoping there would be a second and a third and so on. Federico wanted his first Gin to be an expression of his region: strong, sociable and with a lively character, so he was inspired to use the flavour of the sea, Romagna salt. Because salt enhances every flavour in the kitchen, Gin Primo is excellent drunk alone but it is in mixing that it really gives its best. Primo has a strong and sincere character, which is why it has few botanicals: there is Lavender, which gives it lovely floral notes; "Santolina cenere" (cotton lavender), which gives a bitter note to the gin; Luigia grass (citron grass) which gives it a hint of citrus; and Tuscan Juniper. Romagna salt from Cervia is added just after the distillation.

Primo Africa is a hot, spicy gin that roars and burns like the sun of this land.

At the base of the unmistakable juniper, 8 other botanicals were added by infusion and then distillation, all enhanced by the salt pearls of Namibia.
Botanicals:
Juniper, Madagascar vanilla, Black pepper, Turmeric, Ethiopian incense, Ylang ylang, Cocoa beans from Tanzania, Sweet Caraway, Mango
Salt of Namibia:
The Namibian Pearls, similar to small snow balls, are made up of fine salt crystals that, pushed from the desert wind, they roll and thus take the particular shape. It is an opalescent white salt, very pure, integral, rich in minerals, free of pollutants, very much
dry and dry with a round and balanced flavour.
