Elephant Gin

In a Nutshell

German gin using a selection of African botanicals.

Tasting Notes

Subtle juniper aromas with a waft of herbs leading to a floral, fruity palate with a deliciously spicy backbone.

Production Notes

Bottled at 45% ABV it is made in small batches using traditional copper stills in a craft distillery near Hamburg in Germany. Elephant Gin uses 14 botanicals, including rare African ingredients, to create the gin’s distinctive flavour profile - juniper, mountain pine needles, lavender, sweet orange peel, fresh apple, cassia bark, ginger, pimento berries, devil's claw, buchu, elderflower, lion's tail, African wormwood and finally baobab - the African elephant's favourite! The botanicals are macerated for 24 hours prior to distillation. Made by the classic London Gin method, its flavour is achieved through the distillation of these natural botanicals and no artificial flavouring is added post distillation.
