Launch of “The Gardener Gin” in Mauritius, co-founded by Hollywood Star Brad Pitt

Grays Inc. Ltd, a leading importer of wines and spirits in Mauritius, will exclusively distribute The Gardener Gin in Mauritius. The Gardener Gin is a distinctive gin crafted by Hollywood icon Brad Pitt, the celebrated Perrin family, and legendary master distiller Tom Nichol.

The Gardener celebrates the ‘art de vivre’ (art of living) embodied by the French Riviera. Pitt and the Perrin family decided to create a spirit that conveyed the ‘light, aromas and flavours’ of the French Riviera after spending many long afternoons and evenings in the area. Nichol, who has more than 40 years of experience in the distilling industry, was brought on board to bring their vision to life. The gin is said to ‘bottle the essence’ of the Riviera, from the sunlight to fresh citrus and wild herbs.

Made from wheat in copper stills, the gin combines juniper, liquorice, angelica and coriander with pink grapefruit, lemon, and sweet and bitter oranges from the Cap d’Antibes in the south of France.

Co-founder Matthieu Perrin said:

“ The French Riviera’s light is life itself. Here, in this blessed place, The Gardener carefully cultivates the land in tune with the seasons, blending knowledge with intuition. Each recipe is a harmony of nature’s mysteries and human experience, preserving a way of life unique to this region.”

Grays Inc. Ltd & Perrin family have been partners for more than 10 years. “We are honoured that the Perrin family have entrusted Grays Inc. Ltd with The Gardner Gin,” says Eliska Botha, Marketing & Spirits Manager at Grays Inc. Ltd.

“We are excited to introduce this gem to the Mauritian market through our 20/Vin shop known for its dedication to the “Art de vivre,” a philosophy embraced by The Gardener Gin. Whether you are a connoisseur or just starting your gin journey, The Gardener Gin promises a tasting experience that transcends the ordinary, inviting you to savor the spirit of the French Riviera right here in Mauritius.”
