The Scottish word \u201cInver\u201d meaning \u2018a confluence of water\u2019 and the French word \u201cRoche\u201d meaning \u2018rock or stone\u2019, are two of the very elements that have come together to spark this venture.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt is only by sharing new ideas and products with others that ideas become reality and once adopted, become instruments of change.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4>At Home in Still Bay<\/h4>\n<p>Still Bay, the brand home, is situated in the abundant Cape Floristic region, known locally as fynbos, which is world renowned for its large and diverse variety of botanical species. Not only the carrier of plentiful resources, but also rich history that has survived on the aforementioned. This Cradle of Creativity is the site of discovery for the oldest art, dating back 73 000 years, which signifies the connectedness that lives here and tethers us to each other.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-64163\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6-2.jpg\" alt=\"Creative Collection Coco Carissa\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6-2-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6-2-940x564.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>The Creative Collection Coco Carissa<\/h4>\n<p>Crossing land and ocean, we share with each other and this inspired the innovation that is Coco Carissa. A blend of <a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/traditional-south-african-food-recipes-make\/\"><strong>Africa<\/strong><\/a>, South America, <a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/authentic-indian-curry-recipes\/\"><strong>India<\/strong><\/a> and Europe forged the harmonious fusion needed to bring to life No. 1 of the Creative Collection. Key ingredients being the seeds of the Theobroma cacao tree which grows in the Amazonian forests of South America, better known as cocoa or chocolate and the red berries of the Carissa bispinosa, an indigenous tree from the forests of the Southern Cape, better known as the num-num.<\/p>\n<p>These components being the namesakes from which Coco Carissa derived her name, we also hope that by connecting botanicals from two fragile biomes, and separate continents, we can remind you if the interconnectedness everyone on this planet shares with each other and especially &#8211; our environment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-64160\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6.jpg\" alt=\"Creative Collection Coco Carissa\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/inverroche-1x6-940x564.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>What to Expect in Coco Carissa<\/h4>\n<p>Coco Carissa welcomes you at first with a <a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/recipe\/rosewater-pistachio-turkish-delight\/\"><strong>Turkish<\/strong><\/a> delight palate, which then develops into the slightly sweeter ripe berries nuance and finally a long, lingering dark chocolate finish. Always keeping with a subtle yet enduring juniper backbone, she is a luscious, complex gin that stays true to her character.<\/p>\n<p>A soft rose on the nose followed by vanilla, almond, hints of sweet citrus and even a dash of cinnamon and spice complete the well-rounded experience.
