Pour, fizz, done. This is the lazy-genius move: KO Classic Gin and four KO tonics in one box, so you build a proper gin and tonic without a single trip to the shop. The gin itself is bright and botanical, juniper up top with a citrusy lift and a whisper of rose underneath. Crack it open on a Friday, hand a glass to whoever's nearest, and let the evening sort itself out.
First sniff is classic gin done right: piney juniper and a bright hit of citrus zest, with a soft floral thing humming behind it. That floral note isn't an accident, it's hand-picked roses from the Mt Kenya foothills, plus lemongrass and a touch of bay leaf doing the work. The sip is clean and lively, a little fruity, then it dries out into a gently spiced finish that leaves you reaching for the next one. Add the tonic and it really opens up, the bitterness pulling all those botanicals into focus.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Kenyan Originals (you might know them as African Originals) is a Nairobi craft outfit that builds drinks around real Kenyan ingredients instead of importing the flavour. The Classic Gin is basically a flavour safari across the country: roses from the Mt Kenya foothills, licorice root from Malindi, lemongrass from Kabati, bay leaves from Kinangop. Local botanicals, local hands, a genuinely Kenyan take on a London classic.
