It’s now Black Pearl x Black Rose as actress acquires equity in gin brand

Pearl Thusi has joined the ranks of the acquisition family, making deals that will turn heads. 

The actress, model and TV presenter has partnered with Luxe Brands to acquire ownership 

equity in premium gin brand, Black Rose Gin.

After having been introduced to the gin, Thusi knew she wanted to be a part of the brand in an ownership capacity. 

“I just love everything about this brand, I mean The Black Pearl x Black Rose -it was written in the stars. Satin Original is classic, the smoothest gin you’ll ever taste. The Blood Orange is sexy and daring and Pink Pomegranate is sexy and flirtatious- these variants are delicious and make any occasion worth celebrating – there’s a flavour for every occasion and every mood. I’m so excited to create a powerful and equally empowering future for the brand and those who love it. Get ready everyone… we’re going to shake things up,” said the actress. 

Black Rose is a South Africa distilled and produced gin, using a unique botanical mix to create the flagship three variants of Satin Original, Ruby Blood Orange and Blush Pink Pomegranate.

“I’ve tasted many gins and had many offers on the table for such collaborations…everything made sense because the quality of Black Rose is the best and so it wasn’t a difficult choice.  There’s really none other like it in the market and I can’t wait to get started and show people exactly that,” said Thusi.

Seth Pereira, chief executive of Luxe Brands said the company was excited to make the announcement and to partner with Thusi on Black Rose Gin. 

“She embodies everything that Black Rose stands for – being a proud, independent and authentic modern woman. Pearl has shown through hard work, dedication to her craft and an unconquerable attitude what can be achieved, and we look forward to her bringing that driving focus and creative mindset she possesses in sharing Black Rose gin with consumers all over the world.”

Black Rose Gin was launched in 2018 as a proudly South African produced and distilled gin, using only the finest botanicals and natural ingredients. It has three variants in the range, Black Rose Satin Original, Black Rose Blush Pink and Black Rose Ruby Blood Orange.
