Ferdinand De Cinque Gin
Ferdinando De Cinque, lawyer, congressman and man of letters, was born in Casoli in 1876 to a prominent family of notaries in the area.
During World War I, in 1915, he decided to enlist voluntarily. These are the years in which the unique recipe is being defined: a blend of alcohol and botanicals created during the wearisome raging of the war, capable of warming the hearts and souls of Ferdinand and his comrades-in-arms.
Each bottle has a different back label (seven in total) with quotes from Ferdinando De Cinque's collection of poems and short stories named Skeletons, dogs, wolves and water lilies, published in 1944. There is also a hole on the front of the label where one can glimpse through the product the painting that served as the cover in the original edition of the book.
