Scapegrace Gold Gin

Scapegrace Gold Gin is one of New Zealand’s most awarded gins — a bold Navy Strength expression (57% ABV) renowned for its vibrant citrus layers and remarkable balance. Rich yet refined, it delivers intensity without losing poise, a benchmark for high-strength gin lovers.

Tasting Notes & Experience

Three distinct layers of citrus — orange, lemon and tangerine — rise over clean juniper. The palate is powerful and warming, yet balanced with subtle spice and herbal lift. The long, dry finish is invigorating, carrying citrus zest and classic London Dry crispness.
