Sugarbird750ml Premium Flavoured Gin

About

Juniper unfiltered

Sugarbird® Juniper Unfiltered Gin showcases the rich purple hue of female juniper cones in Africa’s first unfiltered gin. The full personality of juniper is complemented by an array of unique floral fynbos botanicals including Scarlet Erica, Cape Chamomile, and Cape May. Pink grapefruit peel provides a fresh citrus note to round off the distinct flavours of this showstopper gin.

Pino & Pelaraonium

Sugarbird® Pino & Pelargonium Gin celebrates two of South Africa’s finest botanical exports. Pinotage grape skins impart a vibrant pink blush, while a trio of Pelargonium species (fynbos known globally as Geranium) drives the citrus and floral character. The Rose variety adds floral sweetness, Lemon brings a crispness and African Geranium’s deep red root tuber brings colour and medicinal benefits. The result is a fragrant gin with perfectly balanced natural sweetness.

Honeybush & Moringa

Sugarbird® Honeybush & Moringa Gin blends the natural sweetness of honeybush with the tart, herbaceous character of Namibian Moringa. Trickle-filtered through honeybush and rooibos leaves, this amber gin exudes warm toffee, woody undertones, and aromatic spiciness. A celebration of African botanicals, it offers a distinctive, flavourful gin experience.
