Pour this one slow. Green Dot is a Nairobi-made gin so juniper-forward it almost forgot to add anything else. It is earthy, woody, a little nutty, and properly good to just sip. Want it tonight? Build a Martini, or a G&T with a late-night plate of nyama choma. We will get it to your door fast, whatever the hour.
The nose is earthy and woody, delicate rather than loud, like walking into a pine forest after rain. Sip it and the juniper takes over in the best way: piney, savoury, with a warm nutty edge and a whisper of coconut and vanilla underneath. There is no citrus-and-coriander circus going on here. It is all juniper, all the time, and at 47% it has the weight to carry it. Long, dry, green finish that makes you want the next sip.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This is Kenya's first craft distillery, started in Nairobi in 2018 by Guy Brennan and friends after a G&T moment: half the botanicals on an imported bottle grew right there in Africa, so why import the gin? The hero is Juniperus procera, the African juniper that only grows above 1,500m in the highlands and packs richer oils than the European stuff. Green Dot pushes that idea to the limit. It is built entirely from a single juniper tree, the berries, foliage and toasted wood. A world first, harvested a short drive from the still.
