Description
Born in the sun-drenched vineyards of Marlborough, New Zealand, Strange Nature Gin turns the classic notion of gin on its head. Distillers start with award-winning Sauvignon Blanc grapes, gently fermenting and triple-distilling the wine to create a vivid, pure grape spirit. Into that expressive spirit they add a single botanical—wild Macedonian juniper—allowing the unmistakable flavors of Marlborough fruit to shine through unmasked. The result in every 750mL bottle at 44% ABV is a crystal-clear gin that smells like walking through a vine-row at harvest: ripe gooseberry, passion-fruit, fresh-cut capsicum and zingy lime zest leap from the glass, followed by a whisper of piney juniper.
On the palate Strange Nature is velvet-smooth yet electric. Bright tropical fruit sweetness is balanced by herbal notes of tomato leaf and lemon verbena, finishing long, clean and refreshingly dry. Its bold, wine-derived character makes it a show-stopping martini base, a natural partner to premium tonic, or a playful replacement for tequila in a Margarita. Even the bottle is conversation worthy—squared, weighty and embossed, ideal for engraving a personal message at Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant.
