A handcrafted limited-edition gin liqueur celebrating New Zealand-grown Damson plums steeped in Island Gin Original with a hint of honey, showcasing a beautifully natural red hue.
The Damson Plum Liqueur – Black Label is a rare, batch-limited release using fresh tart Damson plums picked locally and macerated in Island Gin Original for three months. Each bottle contains around half a kilo of fruit, steeped in the gin and honey-infused botanicals, then triple-strained to deliver clarity with a hint of sediment, expressing authenticity. Bottled at a natural abv of 26.5%, this liqueur presents vibrant red plum flavour balanced with subtle sweetness from honey and botanicals. With only 72 bottles produced, it is a testament to island craft and genuine fruit expression. It’s delightful neat on ice or as a distinctive base in cocktails like the Cosmonaut from Sasha Petraske’s cocktail collection.
