Your Black Friday Offerings: Gingerbread Gin, Christmas Packaging, and Seasonal Specials

Black Friday marks the unofficial start of the festive season, and at Black Horse Distillery it brings a rare opportunity to secure limited releases, seasonal favourites, and Christmas-ready gifts. With exclusive pricing, once-a-year flavours, and complimentary festive packaging, this year’s Black Friday offering has been designed to make holiday gifting effortless and memorable.

A Limited Festive Release: Gingerbread Gin Liqueur

South Africa’s festive season is synonymous with warm weather, outdoor celebrations, and long summer afternoons — yet many traditional Christmas flavours still hold a special place in local holiday culture. The Gingerbread Gin Liqueur brings these nostalgic festive notes into a format perfectly suited to a South African summer.

Rather than being a heavy winter-style serve, this liqueur has been crafted to remain refreshing and versatile. Its gentle gingerbread spice is balanced with a smooth, lighter sweetness that makes it ideal for chilled cocktails, sparkling serves, and poolside festive drinks. Mixed with ginger ale, poured over ice cream, or added to a chilled dessert cocktail, it delivers a distinctly seasonal character without feeling overly rich.

Produced in limited quantities and available only during the festive period, it is an ideal summer-appropriate Christmas gift for those who enjoy something unique and flavourful.

Christmas-Ready Packaging at No Extra Cost

To make gifting seamless, all Black Horse spirits purchased during the Black Friday period can be finished in exclusive Christmas packaging. This seasonal wrap transforms each bottle into a ready-to-give present, removing the need for additional preparation and adding a refined visual touch aligned with holiday tradition.

The Christmas wrapper has been designed to complement the aesthetic of the Black Horse range, enhancing both presentation and gifting value.

Black Friday Special: Lust & Envy Gin at R290

For a limited time leading up to Black Friday, Lust and Envy Gin are available at the special price of R290 per bottle. These two expressions were selected specifically for their festive relevance:

• Lust Gin features a bold red colour.

• Envy Gin carries a distinctive green colour.

Together, they reflect the traditional colours of the season, making them particularly well suited for gifting, table décor, cocktail bars, and paired purchases.

Both expressions offer vibrant botanicals and elegant flavour profiles, ensuring they remain versatile choices for holiday serves. Whether purchased individually or as a festive duo, the combination presents exceptional value for those seeking affordable, high-quality craft gin during a high-demand time of year.

This promotional pricing remains valid until Black Friday.

Festive Pairing and Serving Suggestions

To assist with holiday planning, the following pairings complement the seasonal character of each featured spirit:

• Gingerbread Gin Liqueur

  Pairs naturally with warm spices, cream-based mixers, hot serves, vanilla, and dessert cocktails.

• Lust Gin (Red)

  Well suited to berry-based mixers, cranberry blends, and festive spritzes.

• Envy Gin (Green)

  Complements crisp apple, citrus, and tonic serves that highlight its fresh botanical profile.

These combinations lend themselves to Christmas lunches, evening celebrations, gifting hampers, and festive tasting boards.
