Seven Seasons Green Ant Gin 42% vol., 700 ml

Green ants are added before and after distilling this unique Green Ant Gin from Australia.
Some of these green ants can be found in every bottle and are not just decoration, but can also be consumed.
These little fellows are a real taste explosion.
Despite their small size, they taste intensely of lime and coriander and fit perfectly into the Green Ant Gin.

Among the Aboriginal people in tropical northern Australia, green ants have long been on the menu.
They are a popular snack for in-between meals and a sought-after source of protein.
Green ants are also said to have medicinal qualities that are supposed to help with colds, for example.

For thousands of years, indigenous foods have been gathered in the wild by Australian Aboriginal people without harming the ecosystem. This approach was also applied to Green Ant Gin.
That's why Seven Seasons is also about doing things the way they've always been done.
The ants are harvested by hand by the indigenous people. The number of ants that can ultimately be collected is strictly limited.
The nests remain with their queen and juvenile ants to ensure that each individual colony can continue to live without impairment.
The green ants are harvested during the windy season (August / September), one of the Seven Seasons of the Australian Aboriginal people.

To maintain sustainability, the Australian government has granted Seven Seasons and the Larrakia people in northern Australia exclusive permission to legally and sustainably harvest the green ants.

Innovation and tradition are not all that Green Ant Gin has to offer.
It also won gold at the San Francisco World Spirit Competition 2019 and silver at the prestigious IWSC London Spirits Competition in 2021.
