Product information "Pienaar & Son Empire Gin"

Pieenar & Son Empire Gin, the gin produced by a father and son duo, is a wonderful homage to one of the oldest gin traditions in the world. Distilled on a base of South African corn, the result is a gin that perfectly combines the spices of Bo Kaap, Cape Town's colourful district, with cucumber and lime. In a handmade distillery a symbiosis of gin tradition and what the Malays once brought to the Cape is produced. In the nose it shows a rich bouquet of spices. In addition earthy notes of cucumber and a top of fresh lime peel. The bouquet of spices ranges from juniper to a little aniseed. On the palate it shows a tangy elegance, you can feel the great clear brandy of corn, which perfectly blends the spices, cucumber and lime. One is in the early years of gin, when cucumber became more and more popular as a botanical, always with the unobtrusive taste of juniper berries in the finish.

Treatment in the cellar

The individual botanicals and ingredients, according to their aromas, are macerated and distilled from several months to a few hours. During the maceration process, the plants are soaked in the alcohol of the still before and during the distillation process. For the Empire Gin, spices are soaked overnight and then cooked with juniper and coriander during the distillation process. The distillation process takes place in the copper kettle, in small batches. Then the bottles are numbered and packed by hand
