South Africa-, Johannesburg, 29 July 2021-Africa is the birthplace of humankind, with hominids – the ancestor of the modern human – first emerging on the continent about seven million years ago.
The Cradle of Human Kind, a world heritage site, is where some of the earliest and most important fossils have been found on the continent; including the ground-breaking fossils of Mrs Ples, an Australopithecus Africanus, another early ancestor of the modern human.
Many evolutionary firsts also happened in this region, including the use of stone tools around 2.6 million years ago, and our ancestor’s ability to use and control fire, just over a million years ago.
The Flowstone range of gins is also fortunate to call the Cradle of Human Kind its birthplace too. In fact, the name Flowstone is derived from the flowing rock formations that define the area.
Flowstone’s distillery is based on a farm in the heart of the Cradle, and is inspired by the stunning botanical diversity on the internationally proclaimed World Heritage Site.
Further making the range of gins unique are the regions singular flora: the bankenveld botanicals are the very heart and soul of the delicious and award-winning flavours in these acclaimed gins. Crafted to capture the essence of the African Wilderness by drawing from the rich palette of indigenous bushveld botanicals; in fact, it was whilst experimenting with the Wild Cucumber as a garnish in a sundowner G&T that inspired the birth of Flowstone Gin.
The gins now have the prestigious title of most awarded gin range in South Africa and the first gin range ever to hold three double-gold medals from the Michelangelo awards in the same year.
