Some legacies aren’t written. They’re poured.

It’s in the way he listens without judgment.
The quiet sacrifices. The loud laughter.
The steady presence — even when life wasn’t.

This Father's Day, we pause to honour the men who’ve shaped our stories — not with grand gestures, but with simple, lasting moments.

To the fathers, grandfathers, and guardians of tradition — we raise a glass. 🥃

🌿✨ Happy World Gin Day! ✨🌿

Today we raise a glass to the spirit that brings people together — complex, botanical, endlessly versatile... GIN.

Here at African Craft, we're proud to celebrate this day with something uniquely South African: our Honeybush-infused premium gin. 🌼🍸

Infused with the warm, subtly sweet notes of the indigenous honeybush plant — a cousin to rooibos — this gin offers a delicate floral aroma and a gentle, spicy finish. It's our tribute to one of SA’s most remarkable botanicals.

🌟 With multiple Double Golds, Gold Medals, and even the prestigious Gin Trophy under its belt, this is a craft gin that honours tradition while bottling the soul of the Cape.

Best enjoyed the way our master distiller recommends: a sprig of rosemary, a slice of lemon, and good company.

Here’s to gin, to craft, and to celebrating local brilliance on a global day. 🍃

🍸✨ The Magic of Marula Meets the Spirit of Gin ✨🍸

Ever wondered what happens when the wild heart of Africa meets the timeless art of gin-making? Introducing our Marula-Infused Gin — a bold twist on tradition, with a flavour story worth sharing. 🌿🦁

👉 Did you know?
The marula fruit, native to Southern Africa, is packed with vitamin C and rich, tropical flavour. It’s also famously loved by elephants (yes, really!) and has been used for centuries in local rituals and remedies. 🌳🐘

Now imagine that wild, juicy essence infused into a carefully crafted gin — balancing earthy botanicals with a soft, fruity finish. 🍋🍑🍸

💡 Why Marula + Gin?
Because we believe gin should be adventurous — and marula brings a velvety sweetness that elevates classic cocktails or shines beautifully on its own over ice.

📸 Whether you're sipping it neat, mixing a marula G&T, or crafting a signature cocktail, this is gin reimagined.

👉 Try it. Love it. Share the wild side of your spirit.
