Founded in 1682, Blaauwklippen is one of the oldest wine farms in Stellenbosch. Etched between ancient blue granite boulders on the slopes of mineral-rich mountain soils, we produce authentic wines in harmony with the simplicity of country living.
in the cellar : Cane neutral spirit at ±96 % alc/vol is sourced and diluted with water (normally to approx. 50% alc./vol. in the boiler of the distillation column. The Gin is then distilled with a method called Va-pour infusion.

With this method, the mix of juniper and botanicals do not come into contact with the liquid spirit at all. Instead, they are placed in a basket inside a modified still and only encounter the spirit as vapour. The botanical-infused vapour then condenses into a botanical-infused spirit, (the Raw Gin).

Reverse osmosis water is added to reduce to bottling strength. Vapour infusion is seen as a more superior method than steep and boil, since botanicals do not over-boil. The vapour slowly extracts the delicate flavour or essential oils of these botanicals to form the Gin.
