Larios Pomelo, a fresh gin with a citrus character
Larios Pomelo arrives as a distinctive addition to the world of gin. It is a flavoured gin infused with pink grapefruit, designed for those seeking a lighter, more refreshing and easy-drinking profile.
At Licorea, we keep a close eye on new releases, and this launch from Larios stands out for its clear approach: offering a modern, accessible and highly versatile gin for everyday enjoyment.
A gin infused with pink grapefruit
Pink grapefruit is the true star of this gin. It delivers a bright citrus character, balancing gentle sweetness with a pleasantly subtle bitterness. The result is a fresh drink with a clean profile that is very easy to mix.
Larios Pomelo retains the classic gin base, where traditional botanicals such as juniper remain present, but with a more contemporary twist. The grapefruit does not overpower; it complements and enhances the overall profile.
This approach makes it an appealing choice both for experienced gin drinkers and for those looking to explore softer, more approachable flavours.
The Larios style applied to a modern gin
The Larios brand is known for its Mediterranean style. Its gins typically favour fresh, citrus-forward and easy-drinking profiles. In this case, Larios Pomelo follows that path, but with a bolder edge thanks to the use of pink grapefruit.
This Larios Pomelo is unique within our gin category at Licorea for placing such a strong focus on pink grapefruit as the main feature. This makes it a distinctive option that may surprise even those already familiar with the brand.
The result is a highly versatile gin, perfect for casual moments, gatherings with friends or simply enjoying a light drink.
A flavour profile designed to refresh
The character of Larios Pomelo is defined by its freshness. The grapefruit brings lively, juicy notes, with a slight bitter edge that balances the natural citrus sweetness.
On the palate, it is smooth with a light texture and a very clean finish. It is neither heavy nor overwhelming, making it ideal for warm climates or occasions where something easy to drink is preferred.
The finish is refreshing, with that citrus touch that invites you to keep enjoying it effortlessly.
How to enjoy Larios Pomelo
One of the great advantages of this gin is how easy it is to mix. It works perfectly in simple serves, where the grapefruit can shine without complication.
Larios Pomelo with tonic is the most straightforward option. Simply add ice, a good tonic and a slice of grapefruit to enhance its aroma. It creates a clean, refreshing and well-balanced drink.
Larios Pomelo pitcher, ideal for sharing
For more relaxed occasions, the Larios Pomelo Pitcher is a very appealing choice. It is perfect for gatherings, terraces or celebrations with friends.
The mix is simple and works beautifully:
Larios Pomelo + Seven Up or Sprite + fresh fruit
The bubbles from the soft drink enhance the citrus character, while the fruit adds a pleasant visual and aromatic touch. You can include slices of grapefruit, orange or even berries to give it extra personality.
The result is a fresh, light and easy-to-enjoy drink for sharing.
A gin designed for new occasions
Larios Pomelo responds to a clear trend: fresher, lighter drinks designed to be enjoyed without complexity. It is not intended to be intricate, but rather pleasant and versatile.
At Licorea, we believe this gin is a great fit for those looking for something different within the gin category. It offers freshness, a clear citrus profile and excellent mixability.
For gin lovers wanting to move beyond the classic, and for those seeking a softer alternative, Larios Pomelo presents an interesting option well worth discovering.
