Welcome to Innocent Spirits Distillery – a realm where craftsmanship and creativity collide, and the heart and soul of Cape Town are meticulously bottled in each and every drop. Founded in 2016 by Andrew Wheeler and John Hardie, our journey embarked from a shared fervor for crafting not just spirits, but stories that resonate with the vivacious character of our beloved city.
**Crafting Uniquely Distinctive Spirits**
At Innocent Spirits, we’re not simply producing spirits; we’re weaving narratives of heritage, innovation, and a dash of British flair. Our spirits encapsulate the very essence of Cape Town’s vibrant culture and breathtaking landscapes, each bottle echoing a tale as complex as the flavors that dance within.
**Small Batches, Enormous Passion**
We proudly wear the garagiste badge, handcrafting exclusive small-batch spirits that exude a personal touch. Our spirits are born from a fusion of time-honored techniques and an unrelenting quest for perfection. Every sip reflects the sweat and soul poured into each phase of our meticulous production.
**An Overture of Flavors**
From the deep, resonant notes of our Amber Barrel Rum to the spellbinding charm of our Melodramatico Rum, our selection boasts a harmonious symphony of tastes that cater to every discerning palate. Our signature Cold Brew Coffee Rum embodies the very pulse of Cape Town’s coffee culture, capturing the city’s dynamic energy in liquid form.
**An Unyielding Pursuit of Excellence**
Our pursuit of excellence goes beyond crafting exceptional products. We’re more than a distillery; we’re a bustling hub, a rendezvous where enthusiasts converge to explore, learn, and revel in the art of distillation. Be it a tasting soirée, a masterclass, or a collaborative endeavor, our goal is to infuse our passion into every interaction.
**A Sip of Sustainability**
In our dedication to sustainability, we’ve partnered with like-minded souls who share our vision. Our collaboration with the Cape Mead Company gave rise to Alvearium Mead Gin – a gin as eco-conscious as it is exquisite. We are unwavering in our commitment to crafting spirits that not only tantalize the taste buds but also honor our environment.
