About

We wanted to do something that hadn't been done. To create a unique, beautiful gin, using a variable that wasn't limited to the botanicals selected for the recipe. We grew up on different coasts and are both ocean lovers, and we started playing with the idea of using ocean water. We liked the results, so developed the idea of coastal provenance gins, using the botanicals that grow on the coastlines of the specific oceans.

A Mari Indian Ocean Gin

A Mari Indian Ocean Gin draws its inspiration from the East Coast of Africa. Inspired by the warm Indian Ocean and distilled with fragrant East African botanicals.

Spicy and rich, this gin features Swahili Lime and Madagascan Pink Peppercorns. After distillation, it is infused with Chai which gives it its distinctive golden colour.

A Mari Atlantic Ocean Gin

 A Mari Atlantic Ocean Gin draws its flavours from the West Coast of Cape Town. Inspired by the icy Atlantic Ocean and distilled with indigenous Cape coastal Fynbos.

Making a cup of tea for someone is a more complicated process than you first think

Which way are we leaning: Rooibos or regular? Milk: yes or no? The standard sugar inquiry, a two-part question if the first answer is yes.

And if you have your black belt in tea-making, one final question concerning the tea bag: in or out?

How are you supposed to remember that all if you're making tea for, oh say, 3 people?

It doesn't concern today's deals at all, but we had to think about something while we waited for the kettle to boil.
