There’s sun on your shoulders. The scent of rosemary in the air. A long table filled with good food and even better company.

That’s the world Limonetta belongs to. A Mediterranean-style gin apéritif, gently infused then carefully strained to leave behind nothing but flavour: citrus brightness, herbal depth, and a buttery smooth finish.

Made for golden hour, but launched just in time for Mother’s Day - in honour of the moms who bring people together!

Our signature Aphrodisiac Apéritif is back for round three this Valentine’s Day 

After last year’s sell-out success, we’re collaborating with  again to take it to the next level.

....but what exactly is an aphrodisiac apéritif, you might ask?

 The typical apéritif is a bold blend of botanicals crafted to kickstart your appetite. What makes Please different is that it’s infused with aphrodisiac ingredients designed to release dopamine, heighten your senses, and get the chemistry flowing!

To turn up the heat this year, we’ve curated 3 simple steps to heighten connection, deepen intimacy, and make your night truly unforgettable.

Our Story

Pienaar & Son is a small craft distillery in the centre of the Cape Town City Bowl. A stones throw from Parliament, at the end of a cul-de-sac our tiny distillery goes about its business finding fresh ways of creating and introducing people to quality, modern spirits. Although we more than appreciate traditional methods and the history of distillation, the notion that ‘older is better’ could not be further from our opinionated truth. Our “Master Distiller” is still in his 20s, all our equipment is newly hand built locally and our processes are based off cutting edge nerdy engineering principles.
