Four Pillars Navy Strength Gin
Four Pillars Navy Strength is a gin very much in the style of the Rare Dry Gin but with the volume turned up slightly beyond 11. At 58.8% ABV the gin can support some more robust and interesting botanicals, so there are three new botanicals that are both new (and fresh), including fresh turmeric and ginger. Together they have heightened the spiciness of the gin, and the turmeric in particular has added weight and a lovely earthiness to the palate. Also in the botanical basket about half the normal oranges have been replaced with some explosive native finger limes, grown in Byron Bay. They have an intensity of flavour and acid that is almost impossible to believe, and in the basket they help the gin attain super citrus notes and lovely high-toned freshness.

Wolf Lane Davidson Plum Gin
Our tropical take on a traditional sloe gin; swapping sloe berries for locally grown Far North Queensland Davidson Plums. The plums are steeped for up to 3 months to produce a truly unique sloe style gin. With an earthy aroma that is reminiscent of plum jam, stewed rhubarb and a touch of sweetness. It makes for a perfect after dinner gin. VOL / 500ml ALC / 33.5%
No 209 Barrel Reserve Gin Sauvignon Blanc
No. 209 Sauvignon Blanc Barrel Reserve Gin Batch #4 has a floral nose with hints of toasted grain and subtle spice over undertones of juniper and citrus. The first sip is alluringly sweet and citrusy, with a pleasant tang from wine barrel aging. Mid-palate shows a burst of floral tones, lavender, rose and chamomile with hints of juniper. The finish is long and round with cardamom, chocolate and cassia notes.
No 209 Barrel Reserve Gin Chardonnay
No. 209 Chardonnay Barrel Reserve Gin initially shows a grassy nose followed by buttery-toffee and a hint of oak. The fist sip is subtly sweet and almost fruity, followed by a gin-inspired mid-palate with juniper, cardamom, orange and a hint of eucalyptus. Its finish is rich, long and lingering with a light tannin tang, the sweetness, toasted oak and a pronounced butterscotch note carrying on until the next sip. The Chardonnay Barrel Reserve Gin won a Master Medal in the Gin Masters Competition by the Spirits Business in 2018.

Wild Hibiscus Distilling Co Finger Lime Gin
Ten years in the making, this gin is the distillers masterpiece. Featuringg suspended finger lime caviar from the distillers own farm at Kurrajong Heights. The little balls pop in your mouth when you bite them releasing a 40% alcohol burst of finger lime gin which is different to the gin they are suspended in. A medley of Hawkesbury grown citrus Kaffir Lime, Tahitian lime leaves and Navelina orange makes this a gin experience like no other. Complex in its craft, but incredibly simple to enjoy as the perfect G&T. The bottle is mesmerising to look at and is often referred to as like a gin snowdome.
JEAN FILLIOUX SUBTIL & SO COGNAC VSOP GRAND CHAMPAGNE
Subtil & So, the new VSOP Cognac Grande Champagne by Jean Fillioux. With the noble bottling, the house once again proves that the Grande Champagne, originally known for its old cognacs, can also produce excellent younger qualities. The proof: a coveted gold medal from the Spirits Selection by Concours Mondiale 2021 and a wonderfully harmonious profile of fruity freshness and warm spiciness. The 4 to 6-year-old VSOP comes from the picturesque La Pouyade winery, which has been family-owned since 1894 and is completely independent to this day. It is surrounded by 25 hectares of the finest white wine grapes. They thrive in the "Golden Triangle", the heart of Grande Champagne. They are cherished and loved in the fifth generation by Christophe Fillioux and his family, who are one with their vineyard. You can taste that in their extremely aromatic cognacs – and today they are valued around the world. Tasting Notes: Nose: fruity and delicately floral. Palate: Fresh figs and citrus blend with nutmeg, almond paste and orange blossom. Finish: Enjoyable and warming with subtle spice.

Nakano BC Nakano BC Japanese Craft GIN KODACHI
You can enjoy the rich taste of cedar and cypress harvested in the area where Kumano Kodo is a World Heritage Site. Mainly uses “Kishu sugi (cypress)” and Kishu Kumano hinoki(cedar)” which are famous as “Kishu wood”, and uses juniper berry as the base of the aroma of gin. The fragrances of the three materials contain a lot of ingredients called “”alpha pinene”” and deepen the fragrance of each other. At first, the scent of Japanese cedar rises, and when you put it in your mouth, the calm and thick scent and flavor of Japanese cypress spreads a little later. Refreshing and smooth texture with Wakayama citrus, and sharp aftertaste with Wakayama Japanese pepper
