Kelly Khumalo’s Gin Bags Its First Accolade

Kelly Khumalo might have been marred with controversy after controversy this year alone, but she gets up and dusts herself off. She has decided to use her controversy label to make bank but she has achieved even more than that. The Empini hitmaker has embraced the label given to her by making a wise business move which is starting her own brand of gin, called Controversy Gin by Kelly Khumalo.

The Gin brand was launched in March 2020 but has already collected it’s very first accolade. The musician has announced on her Instagram that her gin won an award at the prestigious 2020 SA Women’s Wine & Spirit Awards, walking away with a Gold award.

Thanking her team for their phenomenal work, Kelly took to social media to applaud them for the achievement.

The gin was only available at Makro but Kelly has announced that it is now available on Takealot.
