Craft gin booming in South Africa
(21 Jul 2016) LEAD IN:
Gin production in South Africa is booming.
Local producers are experimenting more and more with different botanicals in a bid to create the ultimate drinking experience.
STORY-LINE:
A gin lover's paradise.
With a history leading back to the middle ages, today this white spirit is enjoying a renaissance in South Africa.
Here at the Mother's Ruin Bar in Cape Town the choice of gins is mind boggling.
We have about 200 different types of gin, which can be a little bit overwhelming when you first arrive, says bartender and co-owner Caitlin Hill.
Some of the ways we try to figure out what you'd like to drink is figuring out what flavour profile you're in the mood for. So if you want to have something sweet, sour, savoury or dry. And then also the country of origin. So whether it be local, or American, European, or maybe another African country. And then also if you're going to have a gin and tonic or if you're going to have a cocktail.
Gin is not only versatile in the flavours that can be produced during distillation, but also in the different ways it can be served – including drinking it neat.
Gin lovers, Karen Frankenfeld and Glenda Eager are enjoying a tipple at the bar.
So this is the Klein Slaaitjie, a really lovely gin cocktail, not too sweet not too bitter. Very refreshing. It's got elderflower, mint and cucumbers. You can really taste the mint which gives it a lovely flavour. I think in terms of gins that are available out there obviously there are a lot more that have come on to the market recently. And I think everybody is really enjoying experimenting with different options, says Eager.
Simone Musgrave is a food and beverages market analyst and refers to Mintel for international market data.
We have hooked onto the trend, the global trend of gin growing. It's definitely the documented fastest growing white spirit in the world. And we've seen that in a year we've gone from three small craft gins to 15 and one popping up every month, a new distillery country-wide. I think what's interesting to see is what makes our gins different from gins in the UK, in the US and Spain, and we really have some amazing stories. We have fynbos – we own that plant kingdom, and the fynbos gins have really jumped out of the woodwork. From beautiful plants with flavours and health benefits to the rooibos, the famous rooibos, she says.
Here at Wilderer, near Paarl, distiller Johan Monnig has already soaked base spirits with a herbal infusion before he begins the distillation process.
The herbal infusion is also added into the still for gin distillation.
While juniper is what all gins have in common, beyond that it's up to the distiller's creativity.
This gin has fynbos botanicals ranging from buchu and honeybush to cancer bush and devil's claw, all local and all with medicinal properties.
Associate Professor Nox Makunga, a medicinal plant biotechnologist from the University of Stellenbosch, elaborates on the extent of the fynbos floral kingdom.
The Cape Floral region is really special because it is one of the world's biodiversity hot spots. And for such a small area it really has a concentration of plants that are endemic to the region. They say there's about 9000 plant species that are actually found in the Cape Flora, and about 500 of these are utilised locally as traditional medicines.
Back at Wilderer, Monnig explains how they make their gin.
The base alcohol we produce is a white wine-derived spirit that's been distilled for about 150 times through column distillation techniques. That base alcohol is then used to soak in 27 different botanicals, which adds a lot more complexity to our gin. It adds to a very herbaceous and very aromatic product.
