Archie Rose x Saint Peter Gin
$84Created by Archie Rose, chef Josh Niland and Samuel Cocks of Saint Peter restaurant, this gin celebrates a shared commitment to the provenance and integrity of locally sourced ingredients, and the pursuit of flavour without waste.
At the heart of this spirit is ethically caught John Dory, meticulously dry-handled and dried to honour the fish in its entirety, with the bones then distilled and paired with native Australian botanicals to create a complex, umami-rich gin that speaks to the full potential of every ingredient.

Description
Tasting Notes
Flavour profile
Nose
Opens with flavours of sun-ripened yuzu, spring alpine meadows, bay leaves and fresh pine needles. The nose evolves over time to offer a complex array of flavours, including bonito flakes, fresh kelp, grapefruit, and black peppercorns.
Palate
The palate has a remarkable translation of flavours from the nose with a creamy texture which counterpoints the citrus and saline focal points.
Finish
The gin concludes with a subtly drying herbaceousness that is both bright and savoury.
Local & Ethically Sourced Ingredients
Created by Archie Rose, chef Josh Niland and bar manager Samuel Cocks of Saint Peter, this gin celebrates a shared commitment to the provenance and integrity of locally sourced ingredients, and the pursuit of flavour without waste.
John Dory is a prized saltwater fish celebrated for its delicate, mild flavour and subtle, firm, white flesh. A true delicacy, it is often regarded as one of the most refined choices from the sea.
A classic gin botanical, Juniper (Juniper Berries) tastes piney, citrusy, woody and floral. The citrusy undertones lend a zesty and refreshing touch, while the woody aspect offers a hint of warmth and depth.
Orris Root imparts flavours and aromas of flowers, hay and sweet earthy scents and a taste comparable to liquorice. It also helps to bind other flavours.
Sunrise Lime is somewhere between a finger lime and calamondin - it's juicy and sharp in flavour, offering bright and zippy citrus notes.
