About

Hunting & Gathering

33 sustainably hand-harvested botanicals, mostly fynbos, form part of the bouquet of this very fine gin.

Copper Distilled

Small batch and handcrafted. Quadruple distilled from the finest white grape spirits in small batches.

Extensive fractional distillation produces a smooth base of the finest quality and purity. This pure spirit is then infused with premium juniper berries and elements from 33 indigenous botanicals, sustainably hand-harvested for their bark, roots, berries, flowers, stems, peels or leaves. Most of these botanicals are members of the fynbos group of plants for which the region is world famous.

These botanicals are macerated in the alcoholic base prior distillation to allow for optimal binding of the herbal aromas.

Vapor-path extraction of flavours is then achieved by suspending the botanicals from the top of the kettle in a muslin bag. A stepwise bending of pure Franschhoek granite mountain spring water results in a truly unique gin of the highest quality.

Tasting Notes

Deep and complex herbal aromas with hints of orange essence, cloves and white pepper, honey and wild Fynbos all overlaying a perfectly smooth palate make this into a gin to treasure.

Every bottle is hand bottled and labeled on site at the Paarl distillery.

Making a cup of tea for someone is a more complicated process than you first think

Which way are we leaning: Rooibos or regular? Milk: yes or no? The standard sugar inquiry, a two-part question if the first answer is yes.

And if you have your black belt in tea-making, one final question concerning the tea bag: in or out?

How are you supposed to remember that all if you're making tea for, oh say, 3 people?

It doesn't concern today's deals at all, but we had to think about something while we waited for the kettle to boil.
