Food Accademia has introduced Arama London Dry Gin to travel retail and has achieved its first listing with Lagardère Travel Retail at Venice Marco Polo Airport.
Launched in the Italian domestic market in June 2022, Arama London Dry Gin (43% ABV) is crafted in Treviso, Italy, using a blend of botanicals sourced from Italy north and south. These include Alpine rose petals, Sicilian oranges, Umbrian juniper and red radicchio leaves from Treviso.
The name, Arama combines the Italian verbs to plough ‘arare’ and to love ‘amare,’ evoking memories of past and present loves.
Packaged in a 50cl clear glass bottle, the stylised label features flowing shapes in vivid colours, symbolising the Italian red radicchio at the heart of the gin.
Food Accademia specialises in bringing authentic, fine Italian food, confectionery and wine and spirits to the travel retail stage. It currently markets 40 brands, supplying both retail and food service outlets globally.
This new brand adds to its expanding spirits portfolio which also includes Russo Limoncello from Amalfi, Castagner Grappa, Castagner Gin Vitae and Maxi Milian Gin.
The company said that more products will be announced soon.
Food Accademia CEO Fabrizio Canal said: “I am delighted to offer Arama London Dry Gin as part of our Italian spirits portfolio.”
“We consistently offer travel retail and duty-free buyers wonderful and unique products from across Italy. Arama London Dry Gin is an exciting and innovative gin brand, rich with Italian botanicals and this first listing allows travellers the chance to take home this very special expression of Italy.” ✈
