Ellement Wine & Spirits

Fortified wine flavoured with bitter Quinchona and 43 botanicals from one of South Africa's most adventurous winemakers.

A combination of old-growth cedar, Island tea leaves, and botanicals steeped in solera-aged fortified wine, with a crisp minty finish. Sip on its own.

If you're looking to upgrade your Negronis, Boulevardiers, or Manhattans, this is the place to start. Also great neat, with a slice of orange.

A versatile eau-de-vie known as "Cognac's little brother", suitable for before or after a meal, and indeed matchable with a variety of foods. The Red is more popular with locals. Five years in oak gives it that little something extra.

The ideal replacement for long-defunct Kina Lillet. Not only is this an exceptional apéritif (rocks, orange slice, perhaps a splash of soda), it's just the thing for a Vesper or the brilliant Corpse Reviver #2.  But beware: in the words of cocktail legend Harry Craddock of the London Savoy, "Four of these taken in swift succession will unrevive the corpse again."

Cocchi Rosa, with its beautiful colour from a Red wine base, stars in an excellent aperitivo or spritz garnished with rosemary or ruby grapefruit.

A semi-sweet Sherry with a balance of nutty and dried fruit flavours.

Fino sherry, aged under a veil of flor yeast, is light and fresh in style.

Manzanilla sherry has a great salty and dry character.

Sweet and dessert style Sherry with dried apricot, fig, and honey flavours.

Very dry, oxidative style Sherry with hazelnut aromas.
