Southward Smoked Rosemary Gin is a New Zealand craft gin with a savoury edge, combining juniper, rosemary, and a light smoky note for a fresh yet slightly earthy profile.
Southward Smoked Rosemary Gin is a small-batch New Zealand gin from Southward Distilling Co. that leans into more savoury, herb-driven flavours. It keeps a classic juniper base but brings rosemary forward, giving the gin a fresh, slightly piney character that feels natural rather than overpowering.
What sets this one apart is the gentle smoked note. It is not heavy or dominant, but sits quietly in the background, adding a bit of depth and warmth to the overall profile. The combination of rosemary and smoke gives the gin a more grounded, slightly earthy feel while still staying clean and balanced.
It works well in a gin and tonic, especially with a simple garnish like a lemon twist or fresh herbs, where those savoury notes can come through. It is also a good option for cocktails that usually call for something more herbaceous, offering a slightly different angle without being too bold or challenging.
