Dynamite Distilling Company Products
Drysdales Brandy: Drysdale’s brandy has a distinct oak flavour with hints of smoke, giving it a unique flavour for brandy, with a cognac’s sipping smoothness. It is delicious when used with a mixer or on its own over ice when the body of flavour can be fully appreciated.
SHEKEELA (our version of Tequila):
Barrel Aged Anejo: The barrel ageing process of our Anejo takes place in a French oak barrel, which impairs a whiskey-like aroma. Vanilla on the palate. Smooth mouthfeel on the finish.
Drysdales Blanco: The unique sweetness of the agave nectar – the result of the fermented and distilled agave plant – is the first thing you taste, followed by a smokiness and a light peppery flavour. The sweetness, combined with the smoky flavour, creates a completely unique agave spirit – made from 100% South African grown Karoo agave.
Drysdales Blanco Chilli: Made using dried cayenne peppers, this agave spirit is not for the faint-hearted. The immediate taste is that of the cayenne pepper, giving it a spicy but wholesome flavour. As the taste progresses on your pallet, a smoky flavour becomes present, giving this unique agave spirit the perfect blend of spice and smokiness.
Drysdales Chilli Gin: The Chilli flavour is bold and hot upfront and leaves a lingering reminder at the back of the throat. It is a genuine gin with a base of juniper, Angelica root, coriander and orange peel. A hint of cinnamon and ginger brings the flavour into balance with the heat. We recommend drinking this gin with ginger ale and using a cinnamon stick to stir – making a unique, interesting and unexpectedly delicious cocktail!
Drysdales Citrus Gin: This is a perfectly weighted zesty citrus-forward gin that balances the mouth feel with the aroma. The bold flavour is tempered by the gentle introduction of orange blossom and cranberry, leaving a lingering aftertaste which makes you want to do it again and again…
Drysdales Sloe Gin: Our Sloe Gin is our premium range sipping gin. It is vapour infused, using all-natural products to create a smooth yet complex base which is infused over whole sloe berries for three months. This gin is processed in a way that prioritizes the superiority of quality and flavour, resulting in a gin so smooth, it can be sipped neat!
Floral Gin: An award-winning small-batch, handcrafted extra smooth and luxurious gin with a lavender overtone to the soft juniper and orange blossom background.
This is a floral forward tasting gin which is equally at home as a sipping gin or paired with pink tonic for the ultimate iridescent refreshing G&T.
Jozi Dry Gin: Another award-winning gin fully captures the vibrant, spicy essence of our city. The distinct juniper aroma is combined with cinnamon and ginger to give a refreshing introduction to this classic gin. The depth is then created by the addition of Angelica Root, cardamom and two other minor botanicals. A comfortable mouthfeel is the result of four distillations and careful blending of the macerated and infused botanicals.
Summer Gin: The refreshing taste of our summer gin is perfect to break the heat of summer. Combined with lime, green apple and ginger, the distinct juniper aroma is a refreshing introduction to this classic gin. Depth is added by the addition of Angelica Root and cardamom. This is the result of four distillations and the careful blending of the macerated and infused botanicals.
Drysdales Coffee Liqueur: A dark,sweet syrupy liqueur with flavours of coffee, chocolate, toffee and vanilla and a rich mocha and vanilla aroma. Great with coffee to add extra richness, flavour and a bit of a kick!
Drysdale Honey Melon Liqueur: A clear, sweet liqueur with a distinctive spanspek flavour and honey after-taste. The aroma is distinctly spanspek. Drizzle over your fruit and ice cream sundae to make a delicious summer dessert.
Drysdales Malt Liqueur: A smooth and sweet malt whisky taste – this whisky liqueur is very easy to drink but is very definitely a whisky – in taste and in its slightly smokey and woody aromas. Ideal for sipping neat over a few blocks of ice or adding to your after-dinner coffee, turning it into a very smooth Irish coffee.
Drysdales Pistachio Liqueur: This is a Pistachio fan’s ultimate favourite: a bright green colour with a creamy, smooth Pistachio flavour, and a buttery Pistachio aroma. Ideal for sipping on a warm evening or for pouring over your vanilla ice cream for a delicious summer treat.
