GRAND HYATT BALI LAUNCHES EXCLUSIVE MATAHARI GIN IN COLLABORATION WITH EAST INDIES GIN
Grand Hyatt Bali proudly announces the launch of its exclusive Matahari Gin, in collaboration with the award-winning East Indies Gin. This partnership marks a significant milestone for both brands, blending the luxury and hospitality expertise of Grand Hyatt Bali with the artisanal craftsmanship of East Indies Gin, renowned for its locally sourced botanicals and international acclaim.
Located in the heart of Bali, Grand Hyatt Bali is celebrated not only for its stunning beachfront property and world-class service but also for its commitment to providing unique and unforgettable guest experiences. Unwrapping the beauty of Bali, this special gin is the hotel’s latest gesture, linking guests to the island’s rhythm and tranquility with every delightful serving.
Hyatt’s Thoughtful Approach to Food and Beverage
At Grand Hyatt Bali, we believe in offering more than just luxurious accommodation – we offer experiences that reflect our dedication to sustainability, local culture, and impeccable quality. As part of the Hyatt food philosophy, “Food. Thoughtfully Sourced. Carefully Served,” we emphasize local flavors, healthy eating, and sustainability in all our food and beverage offerings. Our collaboration with East Indies Gin follows this philosophy closely, using locally sourced botanicals to create a product that is not only delicious but also environmentally conscious.
A Partnership Rooted in Bali’s Spirit
The inspiration behind the Matahari Gin is drawn from Bali’s iconic sunsets, evoking the vibrant hues and exotic flavors of the island. With a distinctive citrus-forward profile, Matahari Gin incorporates the finest Indonesian oranges, including Kintamani, Lumajang, and Calamansi, carefully balanced with botanicals like lemongrass, coriander seeds, star anise, and cinnamon. This unique blend offers a truly Balinese experience in every glass, capturing the essence of Bali’s tropical allure and its rich natural resources.
Mitch Hayhow, the master distiller of Spice Islands, shared, “Our goal was to create a gin that is not only a reflection of Indonesia but also elevates the traditional gin experience. The combination of local ingredients and innovative distillation techniques has resulted in a gin that is both bold and refreshing.”
“We are thrilled to partner with East Indies Gin to bring this exclusive product to life. Matahari Gin embodies the spirit of Bali, providing our guests with a unique and unforgettable sensory experience. This collaboration highlights our commitment to supporting local businesses and delivering exceptional quality to our guests. We look forward to sharing this special gin with spirit enthusiasts around the world,” said Gottfried Bogensperger, General Manager of Grand Hyatt Bali.

To celebrate the launch of Matahari Gin, Grand Hyatt Bali hosted a special event on October 9th, featuring curated cocktails, live entertainment, and an introduction to this extraordinary gin by Mitch himself. Guests were invited to explore the vibrant flavors of Matahari Gin, which is exclusively available at Grand Hyatt Bali for the next 12 months.
Matahari Gin is more than just a beverage; it’s a tribute to the beauty, culture, and spirit of Bali. Each bottle captures the essence of the island’s tropical landscapes and vibrant sunsets, offering a sensory experience unlike any other. Available exclusively at Grand Hyatt Bali, this unique gin is set to become a beloved part of the guest experience, creating lasting memories and offering a taste of Bali that guests can take with them, wherever their travels may lead.
