Cruxland Gin
Modern Gin
Cruxland // South Africa
The winemakers at KWV Distillery aimed to create a gin with emphasis on local botanicals. Cruxland Gin is a London Dry style gin that is double distilled from grapes, and features Kalahari truffles as the signature botanical.
These truffles also inspired the name of the gin. Known locally as N'abbas, these truffles tend to swell up after rains, and create a distinct cross-shaped crack in the ground.
