An Artisanal distillery that captures the true spirit of Eden, through rare botanical selection and artful distillation. An epitome that pays tribute to this unique place we call home. It is from this land on the Southern coast of Africa that we draw inspiration and bring together the natural relationship between people and plants. Botanicals are hand foraged from a varied terrain that encompasses rugged coastline, majestic mountain plateaus, dense ancient forest, and remote semi-arid deserts.
Cape Saint Blaize Classic Gin offers a rich, full-bodied sensory experience, marked by its vibrant blend of botanicals. The aroma introduces a bittersweet symphony of lime and elderflower, complemented by fragrant notes of carissa and wild rosemary. The palate continues this complex melody with earthy undertones from freshly cut bark and honeybush, while toasted spices, rose geranium, and caramelized rhubarb add depth and sweetness. The finish is long and smooth, delivering a slight sweetness alongside aromatic juniper and pine, ending with a refreshing citrus burst. This gin is a testament to the artful blend of traditional and unique botanicals, providing a dynamic and enjoyable tasting experience.

Palate:

Finish:
The finish is long and smooth, marked by a dry and slightly sweet closure that leaves a lasting impression of aromatic juniper and pine, with a final burst of citrus to round off the experience.
