Our Botanicals
This boutique batch of hand-crafted gin is our homage to the tradition of gin making and the native flavours of Australia.
Thirteen botanicals including native sage, myrtles, pepperberry and our signature sugar bag honey bestow their magic upon this gin.
The rare sugar bag honey is produced in small quantities by Australian native stingless bees. This inscribes a unique citrus sweetness that when distilled using a traditional copper pot still delivers a softness and depth to the gin.
The result is a beautifully rich gin, at home in a traditional cocktail yet with the complexity and softness to be sipped neat over ice.
