Six Dogs Distillery is an innovative craft gin distillery located in the little valley of De Wet, near the edge of the Karoo in South Africa. The distillery is known for its small batch, handcrafted gins that are distilled using a combination of traditional and modern techniques. The founders, Charles Bryant and his team, began their distillery journey with a makeshift still in a shed, and have since developed a range of unique gins that include Six Dogs Karoo, Blue, and Pinotage Stained, as well as Honey Lime Gin. These gins incorporate local botanicals and are celebrated for their distinctive flavours and high quality.
Six Dogs Honey Lime Gin offers a refreshingly sweet and citrus-infused tasting experience. The nose introduces the classic scents of juniper and coriander, enriched by the deeper, earthy notes of angelica, creating a harmonious and inviting start. As you sip, the palate comes alive with the vibrant zest of fresh limes, which blends smoothly with the subtle sweetness of locally sourced honey. This delightful combination provides a well-rounded and enjoyable taste that is both crisp and soothing. The finish is smooth, continuing the citrusy zest and sweet honey, leaving a lasting impression that's both refreshing and slightly sweet, perfect for a summer day's refreshment.
