O Produtor, tasting note published in May 17th 2021
A version of the original Sharish, in which the Brave Smolfe Apple would be replaced
by Pêra-Rocha do Oeste, adding an extra botanical, the Loureiro leaf, in homage to Lourinhã.
Limited Edition of 3883 bottles that replicates the recipe of the original Sharish, replacing the wild apple of Esmolfe by rock pear and adding the laurel leaf, aged for 1 year in Lourinhã casks of Aguardente Vínica, one of the only 3 demarcated regions of vinic brandy in the world (like Cognac and Armagnac). For this reason its colour is slightly straw coloured and has a smoothness and complexity that challenges connoisseurs of whiskeys and vinic brandies.

As inspiration, António Cuco retrieved the smells and flavours of his childhood, such as the Bravo de Esmolfe apple, which his great-grandmother used to give him to eat at the Borba market, and the lúcia-lima, an aroma that reminded him of the tea his grandmother used to prepare at snack time in S. Manços. To these memories she added botanicals, citrus fruits and other ingredients, all from her homeland, to arrive at the final formula of her Gin Sharish
