The Cape Town Gin & Spirits Company (est. 2015) launched the Cape Town Gin brand as a truly South African gin. Distilled and bottled locally, our gins have a distinctly South African flavour and celebrate the vibrant diversity and inspiring creative energy of Cape Town.
Cape Town Rooibos Red Gin offers a vibrant and aromatic journey, starting with a nose rich in caramel and burnt orange aromas, complemented by tangerine peel and marmalade. This leads into a palate that beautifully balances the sharp, earthy notes of rooibos tea with the familiar juniper of classic gin, enriched further by hints of vanilla. The finish is robust and tangy, with a lasting taste of sugary orange and a subtle echo of rooibos, providing a distinctive and enjoyable sipping experience. This gin blends traditional gin flavours with a unique South African twist, making it perfect for both classic and innovative cocktail creations.
