Rivertown Ruby Grapefruit & Orange Gin 750ml
Gin
Description
Rivertown Ruby Grapefruit & Orange Gin is part of a new wave of South African craft gins that lean into bold, recognisable flavour profiles while maintaining a clean, classic structure. Produced locally, the focus here is on clarity and freshness - using a neutral grain spirit as a base and layering in carefully selected botanicals.
Citrus takes centre stage, with ruby grapefruit and orange peel bringing both vibrancy and gentle bitterness, balanced by traditional juniper and subtle spice. The approach is modern and accessible, designed for versatility - whether served simply with tonic or used as a base for easy, flavour-driven cocktails. It’s a style that prioritises drinkability without losing the defining backbone of gin.
Colour:
Clear and bright in the glass.
Nose:
Fresh ruby grapefruit leads, followed by sweet orange zest and a clean juniper note. Subtle hints of spice and floral lift add complexity.
Palate:
Zesty and lively, with pronounced citrus flavours upfront - grapefruit bitterness balanced by orange sweetness. Juniper provides structure, while a light spice note adds depth. The texture is crisp and refreshing.
Finish:
Clean and slightly dry, with lingering citrus peel and a gentle, refreshing bitterness.

Rivertown Ruby Grapefruit & Orange Gin 750ml
- Food Pairing : Rivertown Ruby Grapefruit & Orange Gin works naturally as an aperitif alongside light, fresh dishes. It pairs well with seafood such as grilled prawns or line fish, where the citrus notes echo the brightness of the dish. It also complements salads with vinaigrette or avocado, as the gin’s acidity and bitterness cut through richness. For something more casual, serve it with salty snacks like olives or crisps - the citrus lifts the palate and keeps each sip refreshing.
