ROSA VENTORUM.

“Twelve winds. Twelve places. One juniper.”

A fictional London Dry Gin from Velebit at the top of the market: twelve botanicals from twelve real places, a numbered single-harvest edition, an allocation-only reserve, engraving and distillery visit booking.

Concept project. ROSA VENTORUM is a brand we invented to show what we build: the site is real, live and fully clickable, the business is not. Demo sites stay out of Google on purpose.

What research found

The dearest Croatian gins cost about 50 €, while the world’s top gins, from 150 € up, justify the price with proof: place, harvest, bottle number. Since 17 June 2026 online alcohol sales in Croatia require an e-Građani age check, so the checkout is built around it.

What we built

  1. An atlas of twelve places

    A world and Adriatic map without a map library: every botanical has its place, altitude, harvest season, distillation method and share of the recipe.

  2. Choose your bottle number

    All 1,400 bottles of Harvest 2025 on one grid. Type a birth year and, if it is free, the bottle is yours. Plus a Harvest 2026 diary that grows day by day.

  3. Allocation instead of a shop

    A 150-vessel reserve is allocated by request, with an NFC certificate check and offers for private clients.

  4. Live engraving

    The name appears on the shoulder of the bottle as you type, with the handwritten card beside it. The delivery date allows three days for engraving.

  5. A lawful alcohol checkout

    An age gate on entry, an e-Građani check at checkout, every EU label particular on the product page and the 0.10 € bottle deposit.

Designed for the phone first, where most visitors arrive.
