Inverroche
Inverroche is a small South African distillery that produces a range of refined and original Gins, capable of perfectly expressing the characteristics of the place of origin. Its name comes from the words "Inver," which indicates a confluence of water, and "Roche," which in French means rock, two natural elements typical of the nature of the Cape. It all started from the initiative of Lorna Scott, who first approached environmental issues and sustainable development, only to discover the richness of the local flora: fynbos. Thus, the idea was born to enhance this extraordinary heritage of spontaneous herbs through the production of Gin. With the help of some local experts, Lorna began selecting the most interesting botanicals among the over 9000 varieties present in the territory.
The Inverroche distillates are a reflection of the terroir of Cape Floral Kingdom, one of the areas of South Africa richest in natural biodiversity, located right at the foot of the famous Table Mountain. The local spontaneous flora is known as fynbos, which corresponds to our concept of Mediterranean scrub. The plants, herbs, and fruits of fynbos have been used for millennia by the indigenous people of South Africa both as a food source and to extract healthy and natural medicinal principles. It is precisely these botanicals that make the aroma of the Gins so unique, original, and inimitable. The herbs necessary for the production of the distillates are now cultivated and harvested by small local farmers, who already supply the food or pharmaceutical industry. These are indigenous nurseries, where the plants live in an absolutely uncontaminated natural environment and are then harvested and processed by hand to ensure their absolute quality.
At the heart of the success of Inverroche Gins are particularly five botanicals from the fynbos of Cape Floral Kingdom, which contribute to giving an absolutely special personality to the aromatic palette of the distillates. Tulbaghia violacea or wild garlic is similar to normal garlic but has a more intense aroma. Its essence is extracted through infusion in water and possesses excellentInverroche is a small South African distillery that produces a range of refined and original Gins, capable of perfectly expressing the characteristics of the place of origin.
