This South African Gin Is Infused With Elephant Dung
Looking for an unconventional Christmas gift this year? How about a special South African gin infused with elephant dung? Yes, it’s a real product, and the makers of Indlovu Gin insist it isn’t ‘crap’.
Elephants eat lots of fruits and flowers, much of which goes undigested. The makers say that lends an “amazing variety of botanicals” to the gin, which they say has a “wooded, almost spicy, earthy” flavor. A bottle of Indlovu, which means ‘elephant’ in the Zulu language, sells for about $32 a bottle.
Jade was born and raised in Detroit Rock City and grew up listening to Led Zeppelin, The Who, Tom Petty, etc. In high school she tried multiple different styles from cheerleader to goth but couldn’t do gymnastics and couldn’t get her eyeliner dark enough. She settled on jeans and a t-shirt, playing sports and making normal situations overly awkward. When she’s not making bad jokes on the radio you can find her shanking golf balls into the woods on the golf course and drinking beers at the bar. She has a strict two shot limit when it comes to tequila. Jade enjoys writing and talking about everything happening in Detroit Rock City, our Detroit sports teams, golf, and her fear of robots.
