Signature Dry Gin
Tasting Notes
Nose
Starts with the beguiling and lifted aromatics of juniper which offers lime blossom, apple and an abundance of fresh pine. There is a subtle citrus back bone with lemon and mandarin supported by subtle green tea, figs and watermelon.
Palate
An evolving and complex array of flavours moving from stonefruit to citrus with fresh garden herbs, pine and very subtle eucalyptus.
Finish
A touch of sweet lemon wrestles with dry juniper with the pine and lime always always having the upper hand. A complex, persistent and lingering finish.

Local & Ethically Sourced Ingredients
Featuring eight individually distilled botanicals; including sunrise lime and Geraldton waxflower; both native to Western Australia; and Dorrigo Pepperleaf sourced from Northern NSW; this spirit unites the east and west coasts to deliver a quintessentially Australian dry gin that offers a complex array of flavours.
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.
Waxflower has aromas of lemongrass, beeswax and anise, delivering herbal depth and complexity alongside sharp citrus similar to lemon myrtle.
Sunrise Lime is somewhere between a finger lime and calamondin - it's juicy and sharp in flavour, offering bright and zippy citrus notes.
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.
Coriander Seed offers a warm, nutty flavour with hints of lemon, lavender and orange. It's a classic herbal element of the London Dry profile.
Dorrigo Pepperleaf is a native green leaf pepper with a sharp, hot and unique spicy flavour, and a unique aroma that's a mix of dried basil, tomato water and peppercorns.
Valencia Orange Zest is sweetly scented like an orange starburst. It offers zingy acidity and tanginess with a uniquely refreshing citrus twist.
Strawberry Gum is sweet and slightly acidic (similar to balsamic vinegar) with fruity undertones that have hints of cinnamon, strawberry and passionfruit.
