Bayab Gin

Bayab is African gin built around an African superfruit. The baobab — the upside-down tree of the savanna, living for thousands of years — produces a fruit whose powdery pulp is tart, citrusy, and loaded with vitamin C, and it's the botanical at the heart of every Bayab expression. The gin is distilled in small batches at the Midlands Distillery in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, a 100% solar-powered operation, from botanicals sourced across seven African countries: baobab from Zambia and Ghana, juniper, coriander, rosemary, cinnamon, grapefruit and orange peel, cardamom, and coarse sea salt, bottled at 43% ABV. The brand is B Corp certified and funds baobab reforestation research. Wine Enthusiast's blind panel found pleasant dried spice aromas of nutmeg, cardamom, and coriander, the palate echoing the spice before a mild fruity note suggesting kumquat and a citrusy finish. Expect zesty orange and lemon peel with the baobab's sweet-tangy citrus snap on the nose, warm coriander spice and soft herbs through the middle, a rounded mid-palate sweetness, and a crisp, gently dry juniper finish. Master of Malt says the baobab transforms it from a good gin to a great one; Gin Magazine calls it bright, vibrant, and unlike anything else on the shelf. Built for the everyday G&T, elevated — the house serve is tonic with a grapefruit garnish. Africa in a bottle.
