Over in South Africa, Copper Republic has been making a gin with a botanical that we don't see all that often, rooibos! This gin celebrates the Western Cape region's unique landscape, with local rooibos and Cape ruby grapefruit the star botanicals, alongside South African fynbos ingredients (fynbos is natural shrubland in the Western Cape) and African ginger root. Give it a splash of tonic and a wedge of grapefruit to garnish.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Piney juniper and vibrant grapefruit, with sweet, earthy rooibos, building spices and a herbal undertone.
