Finally: the local production of Mamajuana has increased notably in the Dominican Republic in
recent years, and exports to the United States (where Dominican immigration is numerous) and to
some European countries such as Spain and Italy have grown significantly. The producers have not
forgotten the 50 ml bottles, which are found in various stores for tourists as souvenirs, and of course
in the duty free shop at the Las Américas Airport in Santo Domingo.

Spanish Gin

Thanks for your efforts with the miNiZ. I often think
when it comes out I should try to contribute, but I
really don’t know what to write about. My collection is
a baby compared to most of you guys and I don’t
specialise in anything so I struggle for ideas of what to
write about. I did an article once, when I was a club
newbie, but that was it. I hardly ever find any new
bottles either, but this week I have this morning
purchased here in Townsville at the local bottle store
a gin I have not seen before. Says it’s made in Spain
on the label by MG Destilerias. I am not sure if its
new or not, or it’s just arrived here. But attached is a
photo!!
Cheers, Pieta, Townsville, North Queensland.

Just an example as to how any member, and
occasionally, non-member, can contribute.
