‘Tis The Season To Sip & Savour A South African Classic

Joburg Admin / December 18, 2019

The festive season is a time of year where we can come together and unwind over a few drinks to celebrate our traditions, relationships, and successes. Family, friends, food, and fun are all very much part of the festivities, and Wixworth Gin is the classic you need to add to your drinks table to complement the season. A nod to the past, staying true, and embracing the new. Here’s to being a classic. The Wixworth journey began with a desire to create a unique South African gin. We explored the gin-making methods and recipes dating back to the 17th century, which inspired us to create a gin that we could call our own. A gin that embraced tried-and-tested techniques and ingredients, but one that stayed true to its roots. This is the spirit of “being a classic”.

A distinctive taste made to celebrate every occasion

Handcrafted from six botanicals, Wixworth evokes the subtle flavours and aromas that are unmistakably South African. It’s an exquisitely balanced, delicately fragranced gin, that is crisp and dry with a dominant juniper flavour, hints of spice, and nuanced citrus notes. At the heart of Wixworth is a unique natural ingredient that puts a spin on a traditional dry gin. The sundried leaves of the indigenous renosterbos (dicerothamnus rhinocerotis) render a refreshing, herbaceous infusion that awakens a unique sensory experience of vast South African vistas.

A classic serving perfectly poised to shake up the festive season

There’s nothing that raises the spirits quite like Wixworth. Whether you’re savouring it in the comfort of your home or the surroundings of your favourite holiday destination, a Wix & Tonic is a simple, yet sophisticated way to celebrate the festive season.

Wix & Tonic

  • 50ml Wixworth Gin
  • 200ml plain Tonic Water
  • Garnish with a wheel of lime
  • Lime, not lemon! Adding a lime wheel to the mix instantly enhances Wixworth’s natural orange peel flavours.

Protecting a classic

We are passionate about conserving all that makes us original and dedicated to the survival of all things classically South African. Our rhinos are very much a part of what makes South Africa unique, and the conservation of this beautiful species is a cause that lies very close to our hearts. We believe that saving endangered rhinos from extinction is something to which we can collectively raise a glass. For every bottle sold, Wixworth contributes a percentage to the stoprhinopoaching.com initiative, so you can feel happy that you are not only buying something special, but that you are also giving back to a good cause. After all, isn’t that what Christmas is all about?

How do you get your hands on Wixworth?

Wixworth Gin is available on Takealot.com and at selected liquor stores and restaurants nationwide, for the recommended retail price of R299. Ask for it by name at your favourite establishment or look out for it in-store – its distinctive, elongated green bottle and striking red tag, is sure to grab your attention. Every occasion is worth celebrating. Complement it with a classic.
