Botanicals harvested from the surrounding farms are used as ingredients. Besides juniper from Tuscany, the gin lives from mint and thyme; its sweetness comes from the muscatel grape.
In this way, Villa Ascenti is aimed at people who previously found gin too bitter.
It is best served with a Mediterranean Tonic Water, fresh lemon and a sprig of thyme.
