Elephant - Orange Cocoa Gin - 40%
Elephant Gin is a premium gin brand produced in Germany, known for its strong ethical commitment and exceptional quality. Founded in 2013 by Robin Gerlach, Tessa Gerlach, and Henry Palmer, the brand draws inspiration from their adventurous travels across Kenya, Tanzania, and South Africa. Their mission is clear: to take concrete action to protect the African elephant. To this end, 15% of the profits generated from each bottle are donated to international projects dedicated to elephant conservation. To date, over one million euros have already been contributed to animal protection associations, making Elephant Gin a major player in the preservation of African wildlife.
This artisanal gin is produced in small batches, crafted using the traditional method with an Arnold Holstein copper still, ensuring slow and precise distillation. Its unique recipe is based on a skillful blend of 14 botanical plants, carefully selected: juniper berries, pimento, orange zest, lavender, elderflower, ginger, cassia bark, Leonotis Leonurus, baobab, buchu, Harpagophytum, Artemisia Afra, and mountain pine. This blend skillfully combines rare and authentic African ingredients with fresh apples handpicked from orchards surrounding the distillery, offering an exotic and refined tasting experience. Each Elephant Gin label is personalized and handwritten by a calligrapher, bearing the name of an iconic elephant actively protected by partner foundations. To reinforce its environmental respect, the bottle is custom-made, sealed with a natural cork stopper, and designed without plastic, affirming a sustainable and responsible choice.
Elephant Orange Cocoa Gin stands out particularly for its unique aromatic richness, blending the fresh and vibrant notes of organic sweet oranges from Spain with the delicacy of lightly roasted cocoa beans. This innovative composition brings a perfect balance between sweetness, subtle bitterness, and complexity, making this gin an essential reference for lovers of original and quality spirits.
For an optimal tasting experience, we recommend enjoying Elephant Orange Cocoa Gin neat, with ice cubes, or in a sophisticated cocktail. It is aimed at consumers seeking an artisanal, eco-responsible gin with a strong story, to include in your exclusive spirits collection at Clos des Spiritueux.
