Six Dogs Blue Classic Dry Gin

Six Dogs Blue Classic Dry Gin is a South African original — the first naturally blue gin launched in the country. Infused with blue pea flower and rose pelargonium, it’s elegant, lightly floral and visually mesmerising, turning a delicate pink when mixed with tonic.

Tasting Notes & Experience

Juniper and citrus lead on a classic dry backbone, layered with an earthy, cut-grass note from blue pea flower. Rose pelargonium adds a gentle floral lift. Smooth and crisp on the palate with hints of fresh lucerne, finishing clean with citrus brightness. Add tonic and watch the vivid blue blush to pink.
