Distillery launches chocolate gin in time for Easter

A Lincolnshire Wolds distillery has produced 200 bottles of limited edition chocolate gin in time for Easter.

Massingberd-Mundy Distillery's Cacoa Gin is a twist on its award-winning Burrell's Dry Gin and is described as a "indulgent Easter egg for grown-ups."

The gin - which has been made with organic cocoa beans with green cardamon - is now available to purchase online.

Massingberd-Mundy Distillery's head distiller, Tristan Jorgensen said: "This rich, luxurious gin is like an Easter egg for grown ups - and it's so deliciously indulgent. We love experimenting with new flavours and styles that explore the great possibilities of the UK's favourite spirit, and Cacao Gin is our most unusual creation yet.

"The spirit has all the distinctive boldness of our signature Burrell's Dry Gin, but with the finest organic cacao and green cardamon. It's deliciously chocolatey with tonic water, but add a twist of orange and it's a rich, zesty, aromatic treat.

"We all love Easter, but why crack open an egg when you can open up a bottle?"

Cacao Gin is only available from the South Ormsby Estate alongside the distillery's flagship spirits, Burrell's Dry Gin and Marie Jeanne's Pink Gin.

Its release comes as Massingberd-Mundy Distillery marks its second anniversary.

The distillery was founded in 2020 by Tristan Jorgensen who's spirit-making career began at the Laphroaig Distillery on the Isle of Islay before he went on to produce gins for Chase Distillery, Newton House and Avalon Distillery.
