Cape Kelp Gin

Blackwood Spirits Cape Kelp Gin, distilled in Hout Bay, was inspired by the Cape coast.
It is a unique hand crafted Cape gin which captures the essence of the wild oceans that surround us. A key botanical is Laminaria pallida kelp, giving it a distinct savoury flavour and aroma reminiscent of a walk on the beach after a classic Cape storm.
The kelp is harvested by freediving for it by the distillers. The unusual green/gold colour of the gin is derived from infusing kelp post-distillation, the length of time dependent on ensuring a consistent flavour profile. This colour is completely natural and may vary in intensity from batch to batch. It may also fade slightly over time.
Delicious as a gin and tonic, a perfect garnish is a brined olive or two and some fresh rosemary. It is also smooth enough to be served neat over a large block of ice and as a dirty martini.
