🇻🇳 Vietnam

32.5% ABV

The Sông Cái Spiced Roselle gin showcases a harvest of fruit aged for one year to achieve a balance between sweetness, acidity and tannins. The red basalt forest soils of Vietnam's Highlands nourish plant species that provide a lovely nose of cinnamon, cherry, pepper and ginger, followed with sweet berries and warm spices on the palate. The Spiced Roselle finishes with fleeting wood, spices and dried fruit. This is an exceptional gin, paying homage to centuries of Vietnamese tradition.

Inspiration behind the product

Our Master Distiller and Founder, Daniel Nguyen

Prior to the distillery, Daniel worked extensively in sustainable agroforestry and ethnobotany. Following years of researching the biodiversity and ethnobotany of rural highland Vietnam, Daniel partnered with multi generational foragers and farmers in the highlands of Việt Nam to source botanicals for what would become the first gin ever distilled in the country. Now, working with over 70 families and 3 localities, Sông Cái works not only to build economic models to source botanicals but also partners with local communities in reforestation efforts and building native seed banks.

What makes it unique

A spiced gin base is macerated with ripe rose myrtle berries and roselle buds for over a year to create a spirit with balanced sweetness, tannins, and spice that drinks like a cross between an amaro and sloe gin.
