Ugly Gin Burnt Orange & Sage 500ml

Ugly Gin Burnt Orange & Sage 500ml.

A craft Cape Town gin layered with burnt orange and sage.

Ugly Gin is the small-batch craft gin range from Pienaar & Son distillery in central Cape Town — a label that strips back the unnecessary glamour of the gin world and leans hard into proper, ingredient-led craft distilling. Each Ugly Gin expression is built around a clear flavour idea and distilled in copper pot stills with a strong focus on character.

The Burnt Orange & Sage expression takes the classic gin foundation and infuses it with the deep, caramelised character of charred orange peel alongside the herbal lift of fresh sage. The result is a warm, aromatic, distinctly savoury gin that drinks beautifully in stirred cocktails and Mediterranean-style serves.

Tasting Note:
Nose: Burnt orange peel, fresh sage, juniper and a touch of warm spice.
Palate: Bittersweet citrus and aromatic herbs at the front, balanced by classic juniper, gentle pepper and a touch of caramel.
Finish: Long, dry and gently warming, with lingering orange and herbal sage.

Serving Suggestion: An Ugly Burnt Orange & Tonic — fill a balloon glass with ice, pour 50ml gin, top with chilled premium tonic, and finish with a wide twist of charred orange peel and a fresh sage leaf.

Cocktail Ideas: Brilliant in a Negroni, an Old Fashioned riff with brown sugar and bitters, a Sage Sour with fresh lemon, or a Mediterranean Spritz with chilled soda.

Alcohol: 43% vol. 500ml.

Whether you're a craft-gin fan, exploring South African distilling, or looking for an unusually savoury gin for stirred cocktails, Ugly Gin Burnt Orange & Sage delivers genuine character in every pour.
