From the team responsible for Sugarbird® gin, brandy and rum and the lockdown-inspired set of Kindred Spirits brands comes another exciting new product just in time for Christmas – “Lean on Me” Glitter Gin.
Having already bagged two Gold medals this year, at the SA Women’s Wine and Spirit Awards and at VitisVinifera, “Lean on Me” Gin now has a festive season twist, with the addition of edible glitter that floats within the snowy Christmas scene.
“Shake it up and watch it sparkle,” says Sugarbird® Managing Director Matt Bresler, of the perfectly rounded Cape Dry Gin, which has refreshing undertones of citrus peel, cape fynbos and juniper. Top notes of hibiscus, rose geranium and a hint of buchu make this floral-driven gin, uniquely South African. “For this wonderful time of the year we decided to give this special gin a little twist”.
Besides two brandies, Kindred Spirits also produces “Howler”, an aged Rum spirit aperitif; “Año de los Muertos”, made from Karoo Agave hearts; and “Granny’s Bear” sipping Vodka, using melted snow from the Cape’s Matroosberg mountains to create the perfect Afro-Russian drinking experience.
Kindred Spirits is also behind the popular Sugarbird® Gin Advent Calendar, which makes the perfect stocking filler and Christmas gift. The Sugarbird® Festive Gin Crackers will bring excitement to the table with a beautiful pack of six crackers each containing a mini of a different gin variants, including the team’s newest gin flavour – Sugarbird® Cape Holly and Wild Plum, inspired by both the season and Cape trees.
The New Year will see the launch of an online store for all Kindred Spirits products, including the recently launched “Sugarbird®” and “Ja Nee Fok” brandies. Until then, all products are available at Takealot.com, Smous Online, Quench.mobi and other online and physical retail outlets.
