Kakira Spirits is a producer of premium alcoholic beverages located in Jinja, Uganda, on the shores of Lake Victoria at the source of the Nile River. Established in 1930 by the Madhvani family, Kakira Spirits is part of the Kakira Sugar Estate, where sugarcane has been cultivated and processed for over 70 years.


The company produces award-winning spirits such as gin, vodka, and rum, using molasses derived as a by-product of sugar production. This approach reduces waste and carbon footprint while simultaneously increasing revenues.
