Del Professore Crocodile Gin 700ml
Del Professore Crocodile Gin is a bold Italian Old Tom-style gin created by Antica Distilleria Quaglia in collaboration with the Jerry Thomas Speakeasy in Rome. It is part of the Del Professore range inspired by pre-Prohibition gin traditions, where spirits were softer, slightly rounded, and more aromatic than modern dry gin.
This expression stands out for its slightly sweet, spice-forward profile and its use of cold infusion and gentle filtration. The result is a rich, textured gin where juniper is supported by citrus, florals, and warm exotic spices. It is designed for both classic cocktails and richer, spirit-forward serves like Negroni variations.
