African Craft Naartjie Gin 50 ml
Produced by Select Beverage Company, the African Craft Naartjie Gin forms part of the African Craft premium gin range - a collection inspired by indigenous flavours, African botanicals and familiar local tastes. Based in Cape Town, the company focuses on contemporary small-batch spirits that showcase recognisably South African ingredients and flavour profiles.
The Naartjie-infused expression celebrates one of South Africa’s most nostalgic citrus flavours. Built around a classic juniper-led gin base, the spirit incorporates naartjie character to create a softer, fruit-forward style with fresh citrus aromatics and gentle sweetness. The 50ml format works particularly well for gifting, tasting selections or discovering the African Craft range without committing to a full bottle.
Colour:
Crystal clear with bright brilliance.
Nose:
Fresh orange zest and naartjie peel lead the aromatics, followed by classic juniper, soft citrus blossom and delicate spice notes.
Palate:
Smooth and juicy with vibrant citrus character at the core. Sweet naartjie flavours bring roundness and accessibility, while juniper and subtle botanical spice maintain balance and freshness. The palate feels approachable without becoming overly sweet.
Finish:
Clean and gently dry, with lingering orange peel, soft spice and refreshing citrus oils.
- Food Pairing : African Craft Naartjie Gin pairs naturally with fresh, citrus-driven dishes and lighter South African fare. Try it with peri-peri chicken, grilled prawns or crispy calamari, where the bright citrus notes complement both spice and seafood beautifully. It also works well alongside summer salads, duck pancakes or a classic milk tart, with the naartjie character echoing sweet citrus flavours without overwhelming the palate. Served with tonic, orange zest and a slice of lemon, the gin’s vibrant freshness makes it particularly easy to enjoy as a relaxed summer aperitif.
