​
We are committed to small batch production; ecologically conscious operations; and responsibly sourced raw materials and packaging.
​


OUR INGREDIENTS EXIST NOWHERE ELSE ON EARTH.




Mopane Seed:
Botswana’s version of Juniper, this our very own, extraordinary discovery. It contains a-Pinene, an organic compound of the terpene class, and a key element which gives our gin it’s signature flavour.

Okavango Waters:
​
At the heart of our gins is the sand and papyrus filtered waters from the Tsutsubega floodplain, the result of a thousand-mile meander from the Okavango’s origins in the highlands of central Angola.

Marula Beer:
​
When the seasons allow, the women in the village of Gweta brew traditional beer “Bojalwa ja Morula”made from the Marula fruit. It's the magic ingredient in our initial distillation of our limited seasonal Marula Gin.
A DAILY INVITATION TO PAUSE.

To breathe deeply.
To be fully here, now.
To smile, and remember what's precious.

slow down at sunset
