The crispy citrus backbone is well balanced by a touch of honey. Rounded Oak tannins from barrel aging combine to give the gin its structure and whilst maintaining generosity and lingering finish. Ancient Wisdom barrel-aged Gin is the provocative union of over a dozen exotic botanicals, meticulously sourced from around the world that ravish your palate and restore the soul.Some of our locally sourced botanicals undergo a special cold barrel fermentation treatment, developed in-house before undergoing a time-honored distillation and brewing process. This special technique retains the refined phenolics and raw aromatics leading to a smooth, succulent finish.Distilled botanicals are then aged in 4-year-old x-Chardonnay Barrels for several months for added texture and to advance the integration of oak tannins with herbal phenolics.With a hand on heart, I can say that this is an exceptional drop. Combining the very best Australian Botanicals have to offer, we have created the ultimate Gin. This, my friends, is the result. Enjoy the best of both worlds. Ash Tosh Winemaker & Master Blender

Florescence Gin is a collaboration between Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria and Anther Spirits. This boutique gin contains plants foraged from Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne. Proceeds from the sale support Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria’s important landscapes, research and innovative public programs. FLORESCENCE GIN is hand made at Anther Distillery. Florescence according to the Oxford Dictionary means “the process of flowering” or “the process of developing richly and fully”. All Florescence ingredients are currently growing at both Gardens sites, Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne and Royal Botanic Gardens Cranbourne, which are home to thousands of plant species: there are 8,500 at Melbourne and 1,700 native Australian plant varieties in the Australian Garden at Cranbourne. This includes traditional ingredients such as Juniper, Coriander Seeds, Orange and Lemon peel, but also includes unique selections of native Australian plants such as Tasmannia xerophila (Alpine pepper), Kunzea parvifolia (Violet Kunzea), Baeckea gunniana (Alpine Baeckea) and more. One ingredient, Tasmannia xerophila is a common shrub of the alpine zone and an ancient native woody plant in Victoria. The leaves and berries are aromatic but have a little heat that takes a little while to hit the palate. Another, Kunzea parvifolia is fairly widespread in Victoria. In spring its mauve bottlebrush-like flowers can light up its environment with a purple haze. Tim Entwisle, Director and Chief Executive, Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria says, “I have personally taste-tested and approved of this gin. It has a fantastic aroma and a unique and charismatic flavour. We hope that you enjoy it!”

This classic Yarra Valley Shiraz from Yeringberg is showing those trademark Shiraz characters of cracked black pepper and great fruit weight, there is also some good concentration and a long powdery tannin finish.

The Pinot noir vines used for this wine by Yeringberg were planted in 1969, 1970 & 1974. There are two clones the younger vines are MV6 and the older vines are known as the Rutherglen clone. All the fruit is crushed, de-stemmed and inoculated. Fermentation is generally rapid, with temperatures reaching 32°C. Ferments are plunged by hand every 8 hours. It is pressed as soon as the ferment is dry. The wine is matured in hogsheads, about 30% new, for about 18 months, with 2-3 rackings. Not filtered.

Four Pillars Spiced Negroni Gin is an aromatic, rich and spicy gin with great power and intensity. First, they take the base botanicals and upped the amount of Tasmanian pepperberry leaf and cinnamon. Then the addition of an exotic West African spice called Grains of Paradise. Although powerful, the spice tends to glow rather than become hot. Beautiful organic blood oranges are one of the last additions to the botanical basket, as well as some ginger. These wonderfully fragrant fresh botanicals help lift the spice to another level.
