In Genoa, basil is identity. It grows low to the ground, close to the sea, nourished by salt air and sunlight.

It is the soul of pesto, but above all, it is a fragrance that fills the balconies and kitchens overlooking the harbour.

 

This cocktail draws inspiration from Ligurian basil, highlighting its most unexpected quality: its savoury character. Salted basil evokes the sea breeze, while lime brings tension and verticality, like a fresh blade cutting through the sip.

 

A fresh, aromatic drink, but with character.

 

It never overwhelms; it accompanies.
