“Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt explicabo.” – Investec Trophy Winę Show 2026
Johan Venter didn’t start as an inventor but as a scientist, a highly structured and controlled thinker. A researcher who may have started his career with wine, but in the end, it was spirits that captured his imagination. He went on to become one of the most awarded and respected spirit masters in the world and developed some of South Africa’s most prestigious, iconic, and most loved brands. So, as all great stories actually begin, he left the empire he helped build to begin something all of his own. This is a story about a man who is following his passion and embracing his creativity to shape something new, something rare, something remarkable. This is The Inventer. And this is his legacy.
Hand-selected from three trees at the base of the Cederberg mountains outside Citrusdal, pamplemousse is the hero of this dry-style gin. The white flesh of the Pamplemousse offers a balance of sweetness and tartness, with much less bitterness than we expect from its well-known cousin, the grapefruit. The gin was masterfully distilled in a small copper pot still to create the perfect balance of exotic citrus and traditional Juniper. It can be enjoyed neat or accompanied by a premium tonic.
Nose:
Sweet citrus hues accompany the aroma of juniper.
Palate:
Balance of sweet orange and lemon, rounded by distinctive notes of juniper.
Finish:
Smooth and lingering.
