We met in 2020 at his concert in Portofino, and we bonded and shared past stories of the village. He talked a lot about Portofino Gin and said, ‘You brought this place to the world through the gin’. He really wanted to invest in the company, and together we saw the opportunity to bring the brand to the next level.” What will his involvement be with the brand?I wanted to create a gin to dedicate to the people of Portofino, fully made in Italy. That’s when I started to get interested in the local Ligurian botanicals. Extensive studying and research was carried out. After looking at distilleries in Italy, I involved Alessandro Briola as chief financial officer and Chris Egger as chief marketing officer. The recipe “recalls Italian cuisine, Ligurian cuisine,” added Raymo. “It’s a multi-sensory experience.” Portofino’s Future We were inspired by the vintage perfume containers from the ’50s and ’60s. We are the first to use a format like this.” Raymo said. We will focus on expanding our team by recruiting unique talents, consolidating Portofino Dry Gin’s positioning in the countries we are currently present in and further penetrating new markets. Next year we expect to produce 300,000 bottles and sell 200,000 bottles and we want to guarantee the highest quality standards for our gin.

The gin has earned a multitude of accolades from Gold at the Gin Masters Asia 2020 competition to Triple Gold at The MicroLiquor Spirit Awards this year. After being sold in many countries around the world, Raymo and Egger sought expansion into the U.S. market. I do not take lightly the responsibility we are carrying, taking a little bit of Portofino around the world for people to taste, but I know the founding members feel the same responsibility, and will honour Portofino for all its majesty in Portofino Dry Gin. He then continued to detail the importance of each feature: “ T he square shape of the bottle, the blue color of the Ligurian sea – which is particular to the region of Portofino – [and] the label represents our fishing village.” With these elements in mind, Portofino Dry Gin is the “vehicle to transport [its] consumers” to the founders’ beloved village. We’re aiming to expand our range of products and target new channels, such as duty free. We also want our audience to be able to visit us in Portofino, experience our botanical garden and have a nice G&T in the Piazzetta.” What are your plans for the year ahead?
