Questions.
Answered with a straight face.
[ 01 · About the gin ]
Why is Aubergin purple?
The gin gets its aubergine-purple colour from organic colourings. That describes the colourings; it is not a claim that the whole gin is certified organic. The glass itself is clear.
What is in it?
Six ingredients: aubergine, honey, lemon, black peppercorns, thyme and rosemary.
Does it taste like aubergine?
Only subtly. The intended profile is lightly spiced, with a very subtle hint of aubergine. The final balance of the recipe is still in development.
How strong is it?
Around 40% ABV. This is provisional until the recipe is final.
How big is the bottle?
70 cl.
Is Aubergin vegan?
No. One of the six ingredients is honey.
[ 02 · Buying and gifting ]
Where can I buy Aubergin?
Not yet. Aubergin is coming soon to selected liquor stores, cocktail bars and our own webshop. Leave your email and we'll tell you first.
What will it cost?
The price isn't final yet. We'll share it at launch.
Can I give it as a gift?
That's rather the point. A gift box is in development; the packaging you see on this site is a concept.
[ 03 · Drinking it ]
How should I drink it?
With tonic, on the rocks, neat or in a cocktail. See all cocktails.
Do I have to garnish with all six ingredients?
No. The ingredients next to the bottle tell the story of the gin; they are not a required garnish.
