Cruxland gin is described as a “boutique” brand and also contains juniper berries, honey bush tea, coriander, rooibos, aniseed, cardamom, almonds, and lemon among its botanicals list. Sloe gin is a much loved variant that will be familiar to any connoisseurs of the drink. It also serves as the inspiration behind Boodles Mulberry Gin, which swaps out the sloes for mulberries, resulting in an exotic twist on the classic tipple. Made in South Africa, this Cruxland Gin is infused with Kalahari truffle to give it its distinctive taste, alongside more standard botanicals like honeybush and almond.

I næsen er der et dejligt potpourri af det bedste fra Sydafrika, med varme samt eksotiske planter og bær. I munden er den voluminøs, med kardemomme og rooibos som ret tydelige. Der er en dejlig blødhed som ligger en fornem bund under det hele. Vi er ret sikre på, at denne unikke blødhed stammer fra kalahari-trøflerne. Forrygende gin med krop, varme og sydafrikansk sjæl! It was actually The Tall Hedonist who first drew my attention to Cruxland Gin. An event on my social calendar that I never, ever miss, I first laid eyes on Cruxland at the 2018 Cape Town Gin and Tonic Festival. The photo below captures a bit of the festival two years ago.We’d be very interested to see what the Kalahari truffle distillate tastes like separately, or even mixed into a more traditional base. It is, after-all, the namesake botanical: the Crux Constellation is an alternative name for the Southern Cross, and as ‘X’ marks the spot when truffle hunting, it ties in neatly. Harris Distillery also sell their Sugar Kelp Aromatic Water separately, to add even more crisp sea air to your drink. The clean, neat, albeit deliciously complex lines of Cruxland gin simply laps up the earthiness of woody herbs. It welcomes the fresh acidity from citrus, as it takes hold of the spiciness of the coriander. Producenten af CRUXLAND DRY GIN har det ikke så sexede navn KWV (Koöperatieve Wijnbouwers Vereniging van Suid-Afrika). Det startede som et kooperativ for vindyrkere i Sydafrika men i dag er det et af de største distributører af vin og sydafrika i verden. Men. De producerer altså også stadig selv både vin og spiritus i lange baner. Bland andet altså denne smukke og unikke sag. The beach, the jungle, the mountains. Cities or rivers or grasslands. Wherever your next journey might take you, let KWV Cruxland Gin frame your adventure with a glass filled with memories. Introduction

Cruxland Gin deserves classic, and begs for you to be bold. As bold as the incredibly rare and enigmatic Kalahari N’abbas, also known as ‘Kalahari truffles’ that form the base of this gin. Mikses Med: Vi kan godt lide en let og mild tonic, som lader de sydafrikanske ingredienser og trøfler træde frem. Derfor anbefaler vi dig at mikse den med Fever Tree Light Tonic eller Franklin & Sons Indian Tonic. Vi kan godt lide noget syre som garnish – prøv den eksempelvis med grapeskal. Cruxland Dry Gin Botanicals: Relaterede varer Næse: Der er en interessant herbal fylde fra roiboos og andre sydafrikanske ingredienser. Man fornemmer også druerne, som ginnens base er lavet af – og så er der florale strejf fra honeybush og varme noter af kardemomme, samt et svagt strejf af trøfler.The gin, made by wine and spirits producer KWV is a botanically unique affair, even in this day and age. Made on a grape base and with Kalahari truffles in the mix, Cruxland Gin was inspired by a trip KWC’s Brandy Master (how’s that for a job title) took to the Kalahari desert. There, he stumbled upon the fungus and decided it would probably work well in a gin.

Sometime during the day, I lost sight of Tim for a minute, and I scanned the sea of people to catch sight of him. There he stood, in the middle of the crowd, cradling a taster glass to his chest, his eyes closed and a slight smile on his lips. I instantly knew that he has fallen deeply and irrevocably in love. His love interest? A shot of gin. And not just any gin, I might add. That was the start of our adventure with Cruxland. Now… Kalahari truffles are – according to all sources – a rich, earthy addition. While their inclusion is a real point of interest, in our opinion their presence isn’t that well felt. Instead it’s those crazy fynbos ingredients that shout out, along with the grape base and aniseed, resulting in a crisp, bushy green gin that very much errs on the side of a “New Western”.Leveres i en 1 liters flaske, som i sig selv er et lille kunstværk. Derudover i en tilhørende gaveæske. Fornem gave til én som vil forkæles med noget som ligger langt fra en ”standard-gin”. Her præsenterer vi vinderen fra World Gin Awards; Cruxland Gin. Det er Sydafrika på flaske. Destillatet er lavet af sydafrikanske druer, og blandt de spændende botanicals finder vi bl.a. de fornemme Kalahari ørkentrøfler! Men for lige at understrege det sydafrikanske yderligere, er der også anvendt lokale rooibos og honeybush. Derudover er der infuseret med mere klassiske botanicals som; kardemomme, citron, mandler, koriander, anis og naturligvis enebær. Den er dobbeltdestilleret i gamle pot-stills, og der er tale om håndværk af høj, høj kvalitet. This gin uses Hebridean sugar kelp as one of its botanicals, bottling a taste of the Scottish Isle of Harris where it is made. Den fungerer bedst med en ikke for kraftig tonic, og vi kan derfor anbefale Folkington’s Indian Tonic Light.

Another spirit that blends gin with a cuppa, though this time Southwold’s Adnams are using matcha tea from Japan. With tonic, the juniper takes on an almost chalky, bitter demeanour (helped along by the rooibos), while the coriander and lemon work together to take the flavour in a decidedly acerbic direction. A Cruxland Gin G&T is complex and intriguing, it dries the mouth just as soon as flooding it, yoyo-ing between bitter and sweet and everything in-between. It’s an exciting drink, but one that is a decidedly modern take on the gin genre. And by ‘decidedly modern’ we mean it will very possibly be a polarising choice to serve and one we’d recommend you try before you buy.

Bestil din flaske til kun 335,- (Vi har fri fragt fra kun 400,-.A clear, fragrant liquid, Cruxland Gin infused with Kalahari Truffles boasts notes of fresh juniper and lemon, further enhanced by coriander and spices with an earthy character from the Kalahari truffles. Det første du vil blive mødt med, er den store smag af enebær, der i den grad formår at varme i munden. Når denne varme har lagt sig åbner sig en sandt krydderunivers, hvor særligt kardemomme, anis og hvad jeg tror er trøflen kommer igennem. Hvis du er til krydret gin – så Cruxland for dig. Smag: En fyldig og kompleks smag mødes os – og det er svært at udskille de enkelte botanicals. Men udover enebær kan vi smage roiboss, kardemomme og strejf af anis. Og så er der trøflerne.. De giver en blød, rig umamiagtig tone til den fyldige krop. There is no dominant botanical upon the initial sip, with all parts striking a strange, bushy harmony. Aniseed, though, as it usually wants to do, becomes the drunk at the party half way through, making noise, falling over, dominating an otherwise balanced affair… It’s a bold botanical to use, especially as it takes no time to steal every bit of attention from the curious Kalahari truffle.
