While its story started in South Africa, its handmade in Germany with a focus on the highest quality production standards.
All ingredients are hand-selected, bottles custom-made, labels hand-written and production-controlled by small batches.
Elephant Gin Inspiration
Reminiscing about the so-called ‘sundowner’ drinks after a day out in the South African bush. These sunset cocktails are a big tradition in South Africa – and more often than not, they consist of a G & T. The idea was backed by a mutual love of exotic African botanicals and a realization that would make it interesting addition to a premium gin, alongside more traditional botanicals such as juniper and orange peel.
Botanicals
Elephant Gin is distilled using 14 botanicals, including rare African ingredients that have not been used in gin-making before. The botanicals are hand-selected to limit any impurities and ensure only the highest quality ingredients are used.
Production
Focused on resolutely artisan production methods, all ingredients are carefully checked for any impurities – guaranteeing the optimal flavour profile. Without any artificial flavouring, Elephant Gin only uses locally sourced spring water to bring its products to their required alcoholic volumes.
Elephant Gin’s environmentally and socially sustainable production methods have been recognised by Positive Luxury, a company with a mission to close the trust gap between people and brands. They awarded Elephant Gin with their Butterfly Mark.
