Black Pig Montado Gin

The taste and affection of its creator, Miguel Ângelo Nunes for the Alentejo and its cork oak ecosystem.
Cork, animals, plants, beaches and fields are the origins of the Black Pig brand.
In 2007 the company began planting the first arbutus trees on the Alentejo coast, to produce arbutus brandy, in 2018 the Black Pig distillery was built, located in Santo André.

Gin do Montado Alentejano interprets the rural identity of the Alentejo and of an incomparable ecosystem, the Montado. Inland, between the cork oaks and holm oaks, in harmony with nature and Alentejo traditions, a dry gin is produced, where the essences of the land predominate.

In the fields lives the "master of the montado", the pata negra, a source of inspiration that contributes decisively to the preservation of the Mediterranean ecosystem.

Produced exclusively with biological botanicals, from Cork, to Acorns and Carob, harvested and distilled, they are later reintegrated into the ecosystem, thus respecting the balance of nature.

This perfect symbiosis between Nature, the alchemy of aromas and the production process creates an ecological cycle, from harvest to bottle.

Enjoying this gin, a unique experience, is to remember and live the Alentejo, Heritage of Time.
