Small Batch Scapegrace Dry Gin

Scapegrace Dry Gin Small Batch

• Description: Scapegrace Dry Gin Small Batch is a premium gin from New Zealand, crafted using 12 botanicals and pure water sourced from the Southern Alps. Distilled in a 19th-century John Dore whisky still, it emphasizes a balance of classic gin notes with a modern, smooth finish. The name “Scapegrace” itself means rogue or scoundrel, hinting at a gin that playfully deviates from tradition while honoring the craft.
