Lobo Djinn SA 41.6% 500ml is a distinctive gin crafted in the heart of South Australia’s Adelaide Hills, a region celebrated for its cool-climate terroir and vibrant orchard landscapes. This gin stands apart from traditional London Dry styles, offering a delicate yet complex profile that is both playful and refined.
Distilled from a unique apple cider base, Lobo Djinn captures the essence of orchard freshness with a lush blend of botanicals. On the nose, experience an inviting bouquet of pear skin, citrus leaf, and fresh-cut herbs, intertwined with floral top notes and a subtle flicker of resinous juniper. The aroma is further enriched by hints of green apple, coriander, and cracked pepper, creating an intricate sensory journey.
The palate reveals a clean, slightly oily texture that balances bright citrus zest, pine needle, cardamom, and sweet spice. The quince lends a rounded, subtly exotic fruit character that is less sweet than expected but layered with complexity. Mid-palate, the gin walks a fine line between dry and structured, yet remains expressive and lively.
Lobo Djinn’s versatility shines through in cocktails. It elevates a classic Martini with a lemon twist, complements soda or tonic water beautifully, and serves as a sophisticated base for a savory Gimlet. The finish is lifted and herbal, reminiscent of a garden after fresh rain, offering a refreshing and memorable conclusion.
