Menorca is one of the Balearic Islands located in the Mediterranean. It was declared a Biosphere Reserve in 1993. The island is home to about 95,000 people and is divided into several towns. Menorca's summer is marked by festivals held in each town weekly from June to September, featuring traditional Menorquin horses and commotions. A defining experience is sampling ointment made with Xoriguer Gin and lemonade.
