Description
Scapegrace Blood Orange Gin's profile is truly unique and combines a mixture of both dried and fresh botanicals, creating a delicious and refreshing Blood Orange gin.
Primary - Blood Oranges are sourced locally from Tauranga, which provide a floral, tart and slightly sweet finish.
Secondary - Raspberries are sourced from the Tasman region and provide a lingering natural jammy sweetness. Kaffir Limes from Gisborne provide the Blood Orange a fragment, lingering sour finish.

Distilling
Scapegrace Gin uses Glacial Water from the Southern Alps of New Zealand. New Zealand water is unique because our geography is unique. The rain that hits New Zealand is the same as the rain that hit New Zealand a thousand years ago. The first thing it hits is a huge, jagged mountain range that runs the length of the South Island. This mountain range then holds this water for 80 years. That’s how long it takes to travel through the layers of sediment until it’s finally released in to the depths of one of the world’s last natural aquifers. The reason that Scapegrace tastes clean is because it is.

About
Two guys from New Zealand who didn’t know each other until one married the others sister and then they did. A year sitting in bars and lounges discussing how they always wanted to make their own gin. This is how two brothers-in-law and a part time musician got in to a lot of debt and created a gin that won gold in London and San Francisco.

12 botanicals, nature's wild apostles. Water, torn from the earth 80 years after it was hurled down on New Zealand's Southern Alps. A whisky still, 19th century, stumbled upon in a long abandoned shed.

These are their ingredients. This is how Scapegrace signs its name around the globe.
