Elephant Gin launches ‘African Explorer’ gin to mark ten-year anniversary

Gin producer Elephant Gin is releasing a new limited-edition ‘African Explorer’ gin to mark its ten-year anniversary.

The African Explorer gin features ingredients from all over Africa, including freshly sourced aromatic buchu leaves from South Africa (which according to the company have a flavour reminiscent of blackcurrant), white ginger from Cameroon, Sumbala seeds from Burkina Faso, African nutmeg, baobab, and Lion’s Tail.

The B-Corp certified company also puts a strong emphasis on sustainability, with its 15% lighter eco glass bottles saving 60 tones of CO2 each year. The company also uses 65% recycled glass.

Through its newly established Elephant Gin Foundation, 15% of the proceeds of the limited-edition gin will go to the African Wildlife Foundation (AWF), who are working to save the endangered African Forest Elephant, an elephant native to West and Central Africa, from extinction.

The limited-edition gin launched at the Bar Covent Berlin last week, and will be available from the Craft Gin Club. It will be available at an RRP of £45.
