40% ABV
Café del Mar Gin has been created to be the perfect expression of Ibiza in gin and ideal for sipping while watching the sunset - ideally from the veranda of Café del Mar!
To capture that moment of Mediterranean bliss, the team behind Café del Mar Gin has chosen to use local botanicals like blood orange, hibiscus and rose. They are then balanced by coriander and orris root.
The full list of botanicals used to make Café del Mar Gin is juniper, blood orange, lemon, cinnamon, hibiscus, rose and orris root.
Those botanicals are then distilled in a base spirit and the finished gin is bottled in eye-catching blue gin bottles that have a design inspired by the legendary interior of Café del Mar bar, which was created by noted Catalan architect Lluis Güell.
Sweet and juicy blood orange tones fill both the initial aroma and flavours of this wonderfully thirst-quenching gin.
Hibiscus then offers a floral earthiness while a small addition of delicate rose rounds out the long and fragrant finish.
We recommend serving Café del Mar Gin with Fentimans Pink Grapefruit Tonic Water and garnishing with grapefruit slices for the perfect Café del Mar Gin and tonic.
Café del Mar Gin is also delicious in cocktails like Craft Gin Club's Piña Colada.
Mixing Café del Mar Gin with Daymer Bay Pineapple Juice and Craft Gin Club's expert-made Piña Colada Cocktail Syrup, this twist on the classic rum cocktail is bursting with tropical delight.
Café del Mar Gin is available to buy on the Craft Gin Club online shop at this link.
