Massingberd-Mundy Distillery in the Lincolnshire Wolds has produced 200 bottles of luxurious chocolatey gin in time for Easter
Made with the finest organic cocoa beans with green cardamon, Cacao Gin is an indulgent twist to the distillery’s award winning Burrell’s Dry Gin, described as a “an indulgent Easter egg for grown-ups”.
The limited edition gin is available for order online from 5th April, and comes with a free garnishing pack from Garnish Me Up, making this an extra special treat. Only 200 bottles of Cacao Gin are being produced and it’s expected to sell out quickly.
Cacao Gin from Massingberd-Mundy Distillery will only be available from the South Ormsby Estate website alongside the distillery’s well regarded flagship spirits, Burrell’s Dry Gin and Marie Jeanne’s Pink Gin which have won a series of international accolades.
Massingberd-Mundy Distillery’s head distiller, Tristan Jørgensen said:
“This rich, luxurious gin is like an Easter egg for grown ups - and it’s so deliciously indulgent. We love experimenting with new flavours and styles that explore the great possibilities of the UK’s favourite spirit, and Cacao Gin is our most unusual creation yet.
“The spirit has all the distinctive boldness of our signature Burrell’s Dry Gin, but with the finest organic cacao and green cardamon. It’s deliciously chocolatey with tonic water, but add a twist of orange and it’s a rich, zesty, aromatic treat.
“We all love Easter, but why crack open an egg when you can open up a bottle?”
This April marks the second anniversary of Massingberd-Mundy Distillery, which is based at South Ormsby Estate in the Lincolnshire Wolds. Since 2020, the distillery’s two flagship spirits - Marie Jeanne’s Pink Gin and Burrell’s Dry Gin - have won a series of illustrious awards including accolades from the World Gin Awards, The IWSC Awards, The Gin Guide, The Craft Gin Club and Lincolnshire Life’s Taste of Excellence Food & Drink Awards.
The distillery was founded by master distiller Tristan Jørgensen who’s spirit-making career began at the Laphroaig Distillery on the Isle of Islay before he went on to produce gins for Chase Distillery, Newton House and Avalon Distillery.
Cacao Gin from Massingberd-Mundy Distillery is described as an indulgent, rich, dark chocolate gin with warming herbal notes and fresh menthol. On the nose, you are greeted with indulgent dark chocolate with a hint of cardamon. On tasting, zesty green cardamon brings a little bit of herbal spice to the velvety Cacao nibs. The finish is luxurious and lengthy with moreish chocolate & lingering citrus.
Cacao Gin is available from 5th April from the South Ormsby Estate website for free delivery or click-and-collect.
