Our Slogan: “Life in Abundance”

We believe life should be savoured, celebrated, and shared. Our slogan, “Life in Abundance,” embodies our commitment to cherishing every moment and uplifting our community. Together, we aim to make a positive impact.

Our Story

Born in Patensie, Eastern Cape, diOxygin honours Espie (SP) and Hilda Ferreira, whose love and generosity enriched their community. In 2021, Covid-19 claimed their lives just five days apart due to a lack of oxygen. Their legacy of resilience and care inspires diOxygin. The “di” in our name reflects both our hero botanicals and Espie and Hilda—the foundation of our gin.

The Essence of diOxygin

  • Spekboom (Portulacaria Afra) – Known as Africa’s “Tree of Wonder,” this native South African plant absorbs CO₂, fights climate change, and generates life-giving oxygen. Its leaves lend a refreshing, citrusy tartness to our gin.
  • Queen Mandarins – Grown on our family farm, these mandarins bring sweetness, freshness, and complexity. Packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, they elevate both flavour and wellbeing.

A Gin for Every Occasion

diOxygin’s versatility makes it the perfect companion for any moment, in any season. In the warmth of summer, its crisp, citrus-infused profile shines in a classic gin & tonic, bringing a refreshing burst of flavour to sun-drenched afternoons. Elevate your mixology skills with vibrant cocktails that highlight its Queen Mandarin and Spekboom botanicals, or simply enjoy it over ice, allowing its natural elegance to take centre stage.

As the temperature drops, diOxygin transforms into a comforting indulgence. Savour it neat and appreciate its smooth, refined finish, or craft a warming hot toddy to ward off the winter chill.

Beyond the glass, this gin isn’t just for drinking—it’s a secret ingredient in the kitchen. Infuse sauces and marinades with its distinctive botanical notes, add depth to desserts, or experiment with homemade syrups and reductions. However you choose to enjoy it, diOxygin is a spirit that evolves with you, elevating every occasion.

Sustainability & Giving Back

Community lies at the heart of diOxygin. Through Spekboom, we strive to educate on climate change and its easy propagation for a greener world. We only use the zest of the Queen Mandarins and donate the rest to local community homes, ensuring nothing is wasted. We also aim to contribute a portion of proceeds to provide oxygen cylinders for local care homes, offering vital support. With diOxygin, you’re not just enjoying premium gin—you’re helping make a difference.

Join Us in Celebrating Life

diOxygin isn’t just about gin—it’s about savouring life, sharing laughter, creating lasting memories, and living intentionally to make a difference. That’s the true essence of living life abundantly.

Join us on this journey as we celebrate life, community, and making the world a better place.
