Black Gin

Description

New Zealand gin, 41.6% ABV, produced by Scapegrace. An artisanal gin born from the friendship of two men united by a passion for distilling. It infuses 12 different botanicals, including juniper, coriander, angelica, orris, and cinnamon, into pure fermented grain. Distilled in small batches using a 19th-century copper still. The pure water that flows through New Zealand's southern mountain ranges, filtered deep underground through rocks, contributes to its uniqueness. Notes of juniper on the nose are accompanied by earthy nuances and sweet tropical notes. On the palate, it is full-bodied and fresh, accompanied by spicy notes, hints of menthol, and notes of citrus.

From this winery

For several years now this trendy spirit has crossed the traditional boundaries of production, mostly included in England, to be produced in different parts of the world. A nation that is not lacking is certainly New Zealand, where a particular mention deserves the Scapegrace distillery. A reality that arises from the friendship between two men who did not know each other, until one has married the other's sister, thus establishing a family bond that was the incipit of the birth of Scapegrace.

A distillery dedicated to the highly artisanal production of Gin, made only in small batches, in order to always maintain high quality standards. A Gin that is born after the infusion, in the pure fermented wheat, of 12 different "botanicals", where, next to the juniper, we find coriander, angelica, iris, cinnamon and other elements, which contribute to enrich the olfactory profile.

During the working process, which uses a copper still of the pot-like type of the nineteenth century, also the water has its importance, and for this the team of Scapegrace uses the purest that flows on the southern mountain ranges of the New Zealand, filtered deep through underground rocks.

Today the distillery gives rise to two labels, the "Dry" and the "Gold", both awarded in different competitions, from London to San Francisco, demonstrating the quality that is found in the Scapegrace products, perfect to be mixed inside of the most famous cocktails, from the most classic Gin & Tonic to the everlasting Martini.
