KO 5.8 Gin Spiced Orange 750ml + 1 Free 5.8 Branded Gin Glass

At the heart of KO 5.8 Spiced Orange Gin lies a dedication to authenticity and quality. Native oranges from Kilifi are meticulously infused for 72 hours, allowing their bright citrus notes to meld seamlessly with a selection of indigenous botanicals. The gin’s complex profile is achieved through the harmonious combination of juniper, angelica root, coriander seeds, lime peel, ginger, liquorice, orris root, baobab powder, mint, and groundnuts. This intricate blend is further elevated by the infusion of dried mango, chilli, and turmeric, resulting in a spirit that is both fruity and spicy.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: A vibrant burst of fruity orange greets the senses, complemented by tropical mango aromas and subtle hints of banana, despite the absence of banana in the recipe.
• Palate: The initial sweetness of mango is gracefully balanced by a delicate chilli warmth, leading to earthy undertones of turmeric. As the flavours evolve, a bright chilli kick emerges, providing a satisfying and lingering finish.
• Aroma: A natural fruity essence intertwined with a spicy finale, offering a well-rounded aromatic experience.
