White Possum Naked Amaretto
The folks at White Possum have been big fans of Amaretto and its marzipan flavour for as long as they can remember. But it was a shame not to be able to buy an Australian made Amaretto, so they decided to take matters into their own hands and make one. This is a stripped down version of the classic Italian Amaretto, but with an Australian twist. To make it, the team smashes apart Australian grown bitter almonds (a by-product of the apricot industry), cooks and infuses them in a clean sugarcane spirit for weeks. This is where they get that big bold marzipan flavour that Amaretto lovers will recognise immediately. They then add a pinch of wild Strawberry Gum leaves, harvested from outback NSW, which adds an extra floral boost. On the nose, you'll detect thick marzipan notes but also a smattering of floral and herbal aromas, thanks in part to the addition of Strawberry Gum. A quick swirl opens it up further. On the palate, you'll be greeted with an explosion of marzipan flavour thanks to a generous infusion of bitter almonds. It's thick, decadent and syrup-like with plenty of sweetness but not 'visit the dentist' sweet. On the finish, you'll experience a long drawn-out ending with brown sugar playing a key role in the length. Its flavours will dance around on your tongue like a house party into the wee hours of the morning. All of White Possum's liqueurs, including Naked Amaretto, are bottled exclusively in recycled glass spirit bottles. Between the lovely network of bars who help collect empty spirit bottles for them and the empty bottles that get spat out of their own 'tasting flight production line', they've managed to build up a locally sustainable supply of bottles. These bottles are given a "rough massage" to strip the labels off, then a hardcore hot rinse and a final polish up before being revived with a new liqueur filled life.

Billy Goats Gin
Billy Goats, our Queensland Gin is a small batch, handcrafted using a unique selection of Old and New World Botanicals. We have combined Australian Wheat spirit with gently soaked Juniper, the freshness of Ruby Red Grapefruit, Lemon Myrtle and Native Australian Finger Limes for a vibrant citrus burst. We were looking for a very approachable Gin that had enough citrus for a refreshing burst, but also with enough subtle botanicals to give complexity and depth. Enjoy straight up, with tonic, with soda, or in a cocktail.

Bakery Hill Peated Single Malt Whisky
Our Peated Single Malt attracts both peated whisky lovers as well as those previously averse to the heavier smokier elements of single malts. In our Peated expression, rather than overpowering the malt with smoke, the peat acts as a complimentary flavour to the sweet, floral and fresh notes of the spirit. Something to savour and enjoy. Tasting Notes: Nose: A subdued peat aroma combined with natural leather and overtones of kumquat and fruit mince tart. Sweet, but not overly so. Palate: The palate reveals a tobacco leaf earthiness with layer upon layer of complex smoke intermingling with toffee and honeycomb. Lingers on the lips and palate, demanding just one more sip. Finish: Astonishingly long and complex, an exotic mix of experiences. Awards: 2021 Gold Australian Distilled Spirts Awards
Bakery Hill Double Wood Single Malt Whisky
Our Double Wood expression is a reflection of the impact of rich, soft oak on the pure Bakery Hill unpeated new make spirit. Our Classic spirit is initially matured for up to 7 years in American Oak Ex-Bourbon barrels from Jack Daniels, before being transferred to a virgin French Oak ex-wine barrel, shaved back to bare wood, and then given a light toast to highlight the oak itself – rather than any of the previous contents of the barrel. Tasting Notes: Nose: The nose opens with the slightest hint of apricot, coconut and plum, going on to reveal an intermingling of golden syrup and plum pudding warmed by the spicy hint of cloves Palate: Subdued, mouth filling with orange marmalade overtones with the characteristic rich nougat sweetness and well balanced oak Finish: Rounded, well finished and lingering to the very end
