Scapegrace Black Gin is only possible because nature itself led the way through an infinite maze of botanicals and technique. A maze with only one exit. Aronia Berry, Saffron, Pineapple, Butterfly Pea and Sweet Potato. Floral notes accompanied by a menthol flavor, fresh, cooling citrus freshness sprinkled with a little spiciness.
Liquor producer Scapegrace is spending more than $25 million to build a whisky distillery in Central Otago, set to be the largest in the country. Scapegrace founder Daniel Mclaughlin said the 36-hectare whisky distillery and bottling plant was the next logical step for a company with the mission to create world-famous spirits in New Zealand. Mclaughlin started Scapegrace in 2014 alongside his brother-in-law Mark Neal and friend Richard Bourke. What started as a mission to create an excellent Kiwi-made gin quickly expanded to include vodka, whisky, and now a distillery on the shores of Otago’s Lake Dunstan.
Blended in set amounts at precise temperatures in a defined sequence, to create something made of nothing, and nothing made of something. This is that flavor. This is the taste of Black.The colour is naturally black based on a unique collection of natural extracts. Focused through the lens of modern day botany, with a collection of natural botanicals from the ground, plants, flowers and berries.
