All Natural
One of the things that sets Karoa Cara apart from other distilleries is their use of locally sourced botanicals. This gives their spirits a unique South African character that is both bold and flavourful.
At Karoa Cara Distilling Co. we are passionate about handcrafting small batch spirits of exceptional quality and character. We distil our Gin slowly, using only the freshest organically grown botanicals, to ensure maximum flavour and essential oils are extracted from each ingredient. We never use artificial flavours or colorants, allowing the natural flavours and aromas of our botanicals to shine through.
Our small batch spirits are made with the finest ingredients and authentic methods, and are professionally crafted, never mass-produced.
To ensure the freshness of our botanicals, we make use of our own hydroponic growing tunnels on-site, so that our ingredients stay fresh until they are ready to be added to our 250-litre pot still named “Rafiki”.
Innovation Overload
Their distilling process is as unique as their spirits. The distillery uses an old school pot still to distil their spirits in small batches. This allows their master distiller to carefully monitor the distillation process and ensure that only the finest spirits are produced.
