Visit us to try our spectacular range of gins on the West Coast, close to the heart of Cape Town.
Let’s start with the quintessential London Dry gin – a timeless classic renowned for its crisp, juniper-forward profile. Distilled with a select combination of botanicals, including juniper berries, coriander, and citrus peels, London Dry gin embodies the essence of traditional gin-making.
In recent years, the world of gin has witnessed a surge of creativity and innovation, leading to the emergence of contemporary gin styles. These gins often push the boundaries of tradition, incorporating exotic botanicals, unique flavour infusions, and unconventional distillation techniques.
For those with a taste for adventure, flavoured gins offer a delightful twist on the classic spirit. From fruity expressions like citrus-infused gins to floral delights like rose or violet gins, the world of flavoured gin is a playground of possibilities, perfect for crafting imaginative cocktails or enjoying on their own.
Dating back to the 18th century, Old Tom gin occupies a special place in gin history. With a slightly sweeter profile than London Dry gin, Old Tom gin is ideal for those seeking a more nuanced and approachable gin experience. Its subtle sweetness makes it a versatile choice for classic cocktails like the Tom Collins or the Martinez.
For the bold and adventurous, Navy Strength gins offer an elevated drinking experience with a higher alcohol content and intensified botanical flavours. Originally crafted for naval officers, these robust gins pack a punch and are perfect for crafting cocktails that stand up to bold flavours and ingredients.
