Procera Blue Dot
Procera was founded on a dream to share the very best of Africa with the world. Distilled in Nairobi, Kenya, our gins are the world’s first to use Juniperus Procera, harvested just 70 kilometres away in Kijabe and handpicked from trees growing at an altitude of 2,200 metres. With all other botanicals sourced from across Africa, Procera expresses the terroir of our continent in every sip. Procera is proud to have established Kenya’s first craft distillery and we are honoured to represent Africa on the world stage.
Product description:
Procera Blue Dot (44% abv) is our original release and where our gin’s story first began. Inspired by the richness of Juniperus Procera and the quality of fresh African botanicals. Blue Dot is an elegant and refined expression, crafted for sipping and for use in martinis. Boasting an extraordinary depth of flavour, length of finish and breadth of complexity on the palate, Blue Dot abounds with intense juniper, subtle earthy undertones, and bright spicy top notes. With the addition of our bespoke botanical salt garnish, a G&T bursts to life with a unique, savoury exuberance and inimitable character.
Blue Dot Martini
Due to its delicate yet complex profile, and seamlessly smooth balance, a dry martini is the perfect cocktail to showcase Blue Dot’s deep and layered juniper character.

Method: Rinse your martini glass with vermouth and discard. Pour frozen Blue Dot directly from freezer. Express the lemon zest into the gin and wipe around the rim before dropping in the glass.
Mezcal Amores have one simple philosophy: to strive always towards a balanced relationship with their ecosystem. This is why they exist. It is why they produce their mezcal following a holistic cycle “From seed to sip”. The Amores Philosophy stems from caring consciously for the earth, for the environment and for the people who make each drop of mezcal possible.
Mezcal Amores believe firmly in a better world, and they pursue this vision by empowering their teams and embracing local communities, by supporting local agave farmers (agaveros) and Master Distillers (Maestros Mezcaleros), because they understand that these are the guardians of their Mezcals. To preserve the past, Mezcal Amores look to the future, advancing a sustainable business model today, with their eyes on their impact tomorrow.
True to their philosophy, Mezcal Amores allocate as much as 20% of each bottle's net sale to the development of internal initiatives promoting social and environmental responsibility. These initiatives range from purchasing artisanal mezcal at a fair price, to providing state-of-the-art training for local distillers, from rescuing and protecting wild agave species, to sowing new seed using only organic practices.
Mezcal Amores' vision focuses on evolving, growing and adapting through the promotion of an artisanal mezcal supply chain, as well as on supporting an environmental model aimed at minimal impact and committed to continual innovation.
