Musgrave Spirits<\/h3>\n

\"\"Musgrave Spirits has been a household name in craft gin in South Africa since 2015 and was one of the pioneering brands at the vanguard of South Africa\u2019s gin revolution. Founder, Simone Musgrave, drew inspiration from her family\u2019s history and heritage when starting Musgrave Spirits and has imbued the brand with a spirit for adventure and a penchant for the unusual. Her grandfather, Maurice Boon Musgrave sailed to South Africa from Plymouth in 1949 to start a new life filled with adventure and new experiences. Simone brings that same sense of wonder to Musgrave Spirits by striving for innovation, excellence and continually celebrating African heritage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Musgrave Gin<\/h4>\n

Currently offering both craft gin and brandy, Musgrave Spirits started humbly with the Musgrave Original 11 in 2015. Inspired by Africa\u2019s rich land of flavour and aromas, the Original Musgrave Gin is made up of a selection of 11 botanicals, each reflecting some aspect of the African Spice Route of yesteryear. The Musgrave Gin has expressive top notes of Cardamom, African Ginger, and Grains of Paradise, whilst the citrus and other spices marry together a tale of flavour spanning a continent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Building on their repertoire and starting a \u2018pink drink pandemonium\u2019, Musgrave introduced Musgrave Pink, South Africa\u2019s first Pink Gin. Bedazzled with botanical finery, Musgrave Pink is known to seduce purist and inquisi Distilled with Musgrave\u2019s signature 11 botanicals, rose hips are added during the distillery process, accentuating the distinct top notes of cardamom, African Ginger and Grains of Paradise. The gin is further infused with rosewater adding a slight exotic perfume and depth of flavour. A nod to the founder, Simone, and femininity in general,\u00a0 Musgrave Pink entices enthusiastic drinkers and provides a sense of elegance and occasion to the moment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Musgrave Copper<\/h4>\n

Always striving to reach new heights, Simone decided to reimagine local brandy by introducing two luxurious pot-still brandy infusions \u2014 Musgrave Copper Vanilla and Musgrave Copper Black Honey. The inspired flavour combinations are courtesy of Simone herself and pay homage to Zambia, her birthplace. With Musgrave Copper, Simone intends to disrupt the brandy market, making it more enticing and approachable for female drinkers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor far too long, brandy has had a bad reputation and I want to change that, plus I want to appeal more to women. This premium brandy sector has been struggling for some time now with relevance and needed re-energising. After delving into trend research, this felt like the right move.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Double distilled and matured in oak barrels, the oldest component in this blend is 20 years old and the youngest is 5 years. It forms a complex base where the wood is balanced and well integrated which serves as a carrier for the sweet prune, honey, liquorice, light molasses and savoury notes to develop. With a soft, velvety yet savoury finish, this one of a kind brandy melts in your mouth and lingers on the tongue.<\/span><\/p>\n
