Six Dogs Distillery is named after the founder’s six beloved dogs, symbolising loyalty, adventure, and creativity. The distillery is based on a farm in the Cape Winelands, where sustainability and craftsmanship are central to its ethos. The limes used in this expression are grown on-site, and the honey is harvested from bees that pollinate the wild Karoo vegetation—creating a uniquely terroir-driven gin.
Serving Suggestions
Best enjoyed with Indian tonic water and a slice of fresh lime, or in a Honey-Lime G&T, this gin also shines in cocktails like a South African Southside or a zesty Honey Gin Fizz. Its versatility makes it ideal for both sipping and mixing.
