We are delighted to introduce a new artwork series for Archie Rose Tailored Spirits, our unique collaborative range. We partner with local artists and creatives so that each bottle becomes a canvas, with the artwork serving as the backdrop for personalised labels.

Editors Letter: Victoria Tulloch

Since joining the Archie Rose family eight or so years ago it's been an enormous pleasure and privilege to seek out and work together with a range of artists across our labels and brand. So as we lift the curtain on our most recent artistic collaborations, the flower shop inspired September Gin created together with creator Bryce Heyworth from September Studio and artist James Drinkwater, and our 2025 summer art labels painted by Nicole Nelius, it’s also a great pleasure to be serving as guest editor for this Journal issue.

A Decade of Artist Partnerships

Since we began producing spirits ten years ago, we’ve sought to redefine the art of distillation. Our values of creativity and innovation led naturally to many years of artistic collaboration and the opportunity to showcase the richness of Australian ingredients and artistry. Over the last decade, we have partnered with creatives and artists, each bringing their style and transforming our spirits into experiences that embody Australian culture. By Elisha KennedyRead more

The NGA and where else to go in Canberra

Over the years, we’ve built a number of partnerships across arts and culture, from individual artists to leading institutions, and one that has been equally rewarding and stimulating for us has been our long standing partnership with The National Gallery of Australia (NGA) in capital country, Canberra.

Editors Letter: David Fisher

People often ask how I got into the world of blending, and it is a hard thing to answer quickly. Usually, this question is followed by more questions, such as, “What does your day-to-day look like?” and “How many barrels do you sample a day?”. Whenever I respond, I feel lucky to reflect on a different angle of my work. Having to figure out how to explain my incredibly niche job to people with varying understandings of the production world helps me get closer to answering an essential question: what is important to being a blender?By David Fisher, Senior Spirits BlenderRead more
