A contemporary New Zealand gin infused with rosewater and Szechuan spice, delivering a two-toned profile of floral elegance and vibrant heat.
Rose + Szechuan by Unlikely Companions is a modern expression of duality - floral and spicy, delicate and bold. Crafted in Hawke’s Bay, each botanical is distilled individually to preserve clarity and depth before being blended to perfection.
With key ingredients including juniper, rose petals, Szechuan pepper, coriander, orris root, and lemon, this gin reveals a bouquet of rosewater leading to a spicy mid-palate and a refined, aromatic finish. The addition of rosewater during dilution enhances its lifted perfume profile.
Awarded a Silver Medal at the London Spirits Awards, this gin has been praised for its complexity and confident balance. Enjoy it neat, in a French 75, or paired with grapefruit soda and orange.
