This new whisky, distilled in Scotland but with an African heart, was born under a setting African sun by two friends, Gerrit Wagener and Brin Kushner, debating the Rhino Poaching crisis. As the campfire crackled, an idea was sparked to create a whisky that would not only highlight the plight of the rhino, but also give back to rhino conservation. A warm welcome, then, to Rhino Whisky - premium but easydrinking, and with 20 per cent of profits pledged to the rehabilitation of baby rhinos orphaned due to their mothers being killed for their horns, a really well-thoughtout Christmas drink. You’ll find it for around R590 and is available online on Takealot and a few select retailers. To win a bottle, pop over to Get It Joburg West on Instgram before Dec 10. Feel good Christmas Pour yourself a glass of The Royal Rhino and toast to This is Africa ... while knowing you’re also helping the fight against the poaching of Black and White Rhino. A blend of rich, bold Arabica coffee and vanilla combined with milk, this luxurious cream liqueur is packaged in a bottle shaped like a rhino horn, and is brilliant served over ice in a short glass, in cocktails and drizzled over ice-cream for a quick-butdecadent dessert. And every time you buy a bottle (and another, and another) a percentage of the proceeds go to the anti-poaching fight. So basically you’re saving the rhino, one sip at a time. We’ll drink to that. R159.99 a bottle at most bottle stores or at royalrhino.co.za If we’re talking North Pole, we’re talking Polar Bears. Which are one of the eight species of bear ... all of which are featured in the magnificent Remembering Bears - the latest in the Remembering Wildlife series of fundraising photo books which has already raised an impressive R18 491 947 for conservation projects. For armchair travellers, and those who like to support conservation, this coffee table book has splendid images of polar as well as American black bears, Andean bears, Asiatic black bears, brown bears, giant pandas, sloth bears and sun bears ... images donated by 85 of the world’s leading wildlife photographers (think Marsel van Oosten, Art Wolfe, Frans Lanting, Greg du Toit, Daisy Gilardini and Morten Jørgensen, who took the cover image), with 11 of the stunning images taken by South Africans. One hundred per cent of the sales of the book go to conservation ... much needed since the IUCN (International Union for Conservation and Nature) lists six of the bears as vulnerable or endangered due to pressures ranging from climate change to human-wildlife conflict and even those bears of least concern, such as brown bears, are at risk of being lost forever in certain countries. There’s also the horrors of dancing bears, illegally trafficked bears as pets or those used for medicine. To find out more about Remembering Wildlife, visit rememberingwildlife.com, and support them by giving a copy of the book to a wildlife enthusiast for Christmas.
