Volsted Distillery Cape Sugarbird Old Tom Gin 70cl 41.4% ABV Black Lime & Classic Botanicals Danish Craft Copper Pot Still Hand-Bottled Small Batch

BLACK LIME: THE BOLD CITRUS TWIST THAT DEFINES THIS GIN — Cape Sugarbird is built around black lime, a green lime that has been salted and sun-dried until its natural flavours concentrate into something far more complex, aromatic and deep than fresh citrus alone. The result is a citrus note with real weight and dimension — not sharp, not fleeting, but richly aromatic and lingering. This is what makes Cape Sugarbird unmistakably its own. A CLASSIC OLD TOM GIN WITH A DANISH CRAFT TWIST — Old Tom sits between London Dry and Genever: gently sweet, rounded, and approachable, yet still driven by proper gin botanicals. In Cape Sugarbird, Volsted loads extra classic botanicals — juniper, coriander, angelica — to counterbalance the sweetness and let the black lime sing. The balance is precise: sweet enough to be smooth, botanical enough to be serious. A gin for people who want character in the glass. HAND-DISTILLED IN NORTH JUTLAND, DENMARK — Volsted Distillery sits in the Lindenborg River Valley, just south of Aalborg, where natural tranquillity and a private Ice Age chalk aquifer inspire every spirit made. Founder Thorbjørn Ravn Kaagaard — a process engineer — designed the 100-litre copper still himself and develops every recipe from scratch. Every bottle of Cape Sugarbird is hand-filled and hand-labelled at the distillery. True small-batch craft, every time. FROM DENMARK'S GIN DISTILLERY OF THE YEAR — Volsted Distillery was named Denmark's Gin Distillery of the Year at the Berlin International Spirits Competition 2020. The entire range is distilled using both pot still and vapour infusion techniques, drawing on pure mineral-rich spring water from deep beneath Storbjerg — a drumlin formed during the last Ice Age. This water is central to the clean, precise flavour profile found across every Volsted expression, including Cape Sugarbird. BEST SERVED WITH FEVER TREE INDIAN TONIC & A SLICE OF LIME — Pour over generous ice in a copa glass, top with Fever Tree Premium Indian Tonic, and garnish with a fresh lime slice. For a more floral serve, switch to Fever Tree Mediterranean tonic. Cape Sugarbird's elegant bottle and distinctive black lime story make it an exceptional gin gift for birthdays, Christmas, Father's Day, or any occasion where only a genuinely interesting bottle will do.
