  3. Sydney Opera House Inside Gin

To celebrate the beauty, diversity and creativity of Australia’s leading cultural icon, we’ve collaborated with the Sydney Opera House to create a two-act gin release.

Named simply Outside Gin and Inside Gin this twin release will bring to life the timeless architectural splendour and natural surrounds of the Sydney Opera House alongside the creative energy and artistic talent experienced on its stages.

Inside Gin celebrates the extraordinary creativity that comes to life daily under the Opera House sails - a place where global cultures and art forms collide. The concept behind this spirit was to create the dynamism you would experience in a play, concert or celebration. This fruit-driven gin displays a bright positive summery character and presents a cast of botanicals including native thyme, Australian apricot, raspberry and strawberry gum.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Boldly fruity with sun dried apricot, mangoes and raspberries complimented by a subtle creaminess. The citrus and pine aromas form the backbone. Herbal accents sit comfortably in the background with floral tones offering support.

Palate

Sweet stone fruit, tropical fruit, citrus and berries with an underlying velvety profile.

Finish

A burst of sherbet appears before dovetailing with the lingering flavours of tea tree oil, pine and mint.

Production Notes

Botanicals Sourced

Gin is only as good as its ingredients. By working closely with providores and embracing experimental techniques, emphasis could be placed on local ingredients which speak of their uniquely Australian provenance.
