Tell It To Me Straight

To celebrate our fourth consecutive year as the official gin partner of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, we’ve made a fun conversation starter card game called ‘Tell It To Me Straight’. The card game is available with the purchase of any bottle of Straight Dry Gin or 700ml Tailored Gin while stocks last.

The card game features artwork from Sydney-based artist Micke Lindebergh - we’re big fans of his life-giving, flower-powered artwork. The game stimulates dialogue and connection, with a little bit of cheekiness sprinkled throughout.

Play along with us as we put four of our staff members to the test with five (of the least naughty) questions from our card pack!
