About 78˚ Chocolate Gin
While the distinct notes of a traditional gin are still present, the infusion of leftover cacao husks from the chocolate-making process gives this gin a rich, velvety undertone of bittersweet chocolate that is simply divine. The use of native wattleseed and Riverland oranges further enhances the flavour profile, lending a subtle sweetness and depth to this exquisite gin.
Upon first sip, you are immediately transported to a world of indulgence and luxury, with the rich and smooth taste of dark chocolate taking centre stage. As the flavour profile unfolds, the bright tone of Jaffa orange provides a refreshing contrast, while the toasted wattleseed lends a nutty undertone that adds to the complexity of this decadent spirit.
A bold and daring choice for those who appreciate the finer things in life, our Chocolate Gin is the perfect mixing companion to your cocktails, lending a rich chocolate note to classic cocktails, or providing a delicious base to new creations. If you like to keep things a little simpler, our Chocolate Gin is great partnered with a light tonic, or ginger ale.
Overall, 78˚Chocolate Gin is a true masterpiece of flavour infusion, with every sip offering a moment of pure luxury and decadence.
