Terroir
Inspired by Andorra’s unique geographical identity between the Pyrenean mountains & the Mediterranean, FORA Terroir is a hand-crafted, premium London Dry gin that balances 15 different botanicals, from hand-foraged, wild juniper & pine to rosemary, three types of citrus, Arbequina olives and a touch of Andorran honey.
The name Terroir was borrowed from the world of winemaking. It refers to the concept that ingredients are shaped by the distinct environment (climate, soil, topography) in which they grow, intrinsically imparting them with a unique sense of place and character.
The label of this bottle was designed by Polly Playford and features the magnificent Arcalís mountains behind our distillery.

Our Partners
We are lucky to collaborate with other talented artisans within Andorra, whose incredible products elevate our own gins. One such product is the incredible local honey produced by Autèntic Abelles.
The team at Autèntic Abelles have been working passionately with bees for nearly 20 years. They place hives all over the country, moving them around according to the season and available flora, thus creating unique, complex honeys for each of the country’s seven boroughs.
Autèntic Abelles’ honey imbues Terroir with a complex, distinctive floral finish, as well as incredible smoothness and mouthfeel.
Like FORA, the team at Autèntic Abelles are passionate about nature, craftsmanship and doing things with intention rather than scale.
