Specialist suppliers of premium Italian food & drinks brands, Food Accademia is introducing Arama London Dry Gin to travel retail and has secured its first listing with Lagadère Travel Retail at Venice Marco Polo Airport.

Launched in the Italian domestic market in June 2022, Arama London Dry Gin (43% ABV) is handcrafted in Treviso, Italy, using a blend of botanicals sourced from the north to the south Italy, including 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 an elegant 50cl clear glass bottle, the stylised label features flowing shapes in vivid colours, symbolising the iconic Italian red radicchio at the heart of the gin.

Food Accademia specialises in bringing authentic, fine Italian food, confectionery and wine & spirits to the travel retail stage and currently markets 40 brands, supplying both retail and food service outlets globally.

Arama joins Food Accademia’s expanding spirits portfolio which also includes Russo Limoncello from Amalfi, Castagner Grappa, Castagner Gin Vitae and Maxi Milian Gin. More new products will be announced shortly.

“I am delighted to offer Arama London Dry Gin as part of our Italian spirits portfolio,” says Food Accademia CEO, Fabrizio Canal. “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.”
