Project Citrus Isle
THE ILLUSIONIST DISTILLER'S EDITION 2025
500ml, 45% Vol.
Bathed in Ionian light and steeped in centuries of mythology, Corfu reveals a curious treasure - the kumquat. This golden citrus is more than flavour, or a story, its an extension of the island’s soul.
Our 2025 Distiller’s Edition is guided by the complex, zesty brightness of hand-harvested kumquat, rounded off with nuances of wild mountain botanicals, such as thyme and pine.
Flavour? It opens with a burst of fruity citrus - think mandarin meets lemongrass. Then it mellows into a fresh, herbal finish reminiscent of sun-dried basil and coastal shrub.
Limited to just 2.345 bottles, this edition is a sun-soaked tribute to the Corfiot landscape. Unexpected, pure and curiously refreshing.
THIS IS CORFU, DISTILLED
Guided by its legends and lush terrain, we’ve captured its untamed balance. Fresh. Herbal. Deeply Mediterranean.
MOUNTAIN PINE
An unexpected treasure from Corfu’s higher slopes, these modest evergreens bring a crisp, resinous freshness. Their gentle sap-driven character adds lift to the citrus and herbal layers of the distillate.
Think of a morning walk through pine forests after rain, with hints of wild herbs underfoot.
CORFIOT KUMQUAT
These small golden fruits lend a lively, tangy citrus character to the gin thanks to its rich zests. Juicy yet delicately bittersweet, they are unmistakably tied to Corfu’s identity.
Think of a handful of fresh mandarins kissed with orange blossom and a touch of marmalade.
WILD THYME
Harvested from the salt-kissed cliffs of Corfu, this Mediterranean thyme offers a refined, sun-dried herbal aroma that gracefully balances the bright, fruity lift of its counterpart, the kumquat.
Think of a warm coastal breeze carrying notes of Provençal herb gardens and sea air.

This year, we followed the citrus-scented breeze to the island of Corfu.
It’s a land where ancient gods are said to have walked, from Poseidon to the sea-bound nymphs. Unlike its sun-scorched Mediterranean siblings, Corfu thrives in contradiction: a lush, fertile oasis wrapped in a climate all its own. Here, curious citrus fruits glisten under pine canopies, while fragrant green gems grow wild on salt-kissed cliffs.
