Brewed, Double Distilled, Steeped and Hand bottled on premise. The Houtman Abrolhos is a chain of 122 islands, about 60km off the Geraldton coast of Western Australia. An archipelago with crystal blue waters and an abundance of sea life, we envisioned a premium Gin that would include native Island Botanicals. After 6 months of scouting, foraging and cultivating our own botanicals with a second re-distillation to perfect the balance between the base botanicals and the added Grey Saltbush and Beaded Samphire, we finally had success with emulating the Abrolhos in both taste and looks. We foraged for native botanicals that are found on the Abrolhos Islands. These are handpicked, cleaned, lightly blanched, rinsed and then steeped into the high ABV Spirit for up to 48 hours. They are then painstakingly hand-milled, weighed and put through a vapour basket in 45-minute interval changes over a 3 day second/spirit distillation. Botanicals Used; Grey Saltbush Beaded Samphire Juniper Licorice Root Angelica Root Cassia Quill Clove Lemon & Lime Peel Green Cardamom Pod Coriander seed Saltbush and Samphire were also included into the vapour basket during distillation for extra flavour. The addition of these native botanicals gave the Gin an earthy and herbaceous taste. The added botanicals have resulted in tastes like green apple skins, cucumber, slight capsicum hints with a very light tang and smell of salt spray. Hand Bottled, Labelled and packaged on Premise in Dongara. An earthly flavoured Gin that is best enjoyed with a light tonic and garnish to enhance the native flavours our distiller recommends Green Apple Slices, Celery or Blue Berries.

Tasmanian Coastal Gin, 12 botanicals that uncover an abundance of wakame seaweed from the chilly Tasman sea. Complex and layered, it has aromas of seaweed, ocean spray and fresh rose petals with saline notes, nori and jasmine.

Tasmanian Dry Gin, A classic London Dry style with a Tassie twist has 11 botanicals that hero the native pepperberries and herbs found on the way to Cradle Mountain. Wildly fragrant with alpine freshness, juniper, coriander and Tasmanian highland pepperberries with a hint of liquorice root.

Traditionally favoured by Indigenous societies for their medicinal benefits and protein content, native Green Ants are a unique bush tucker hand harvested in the Northern Territory by the Motlop family of the Larrakia people. The Green Ants display vibrant coriander and kaffir lime leaf flavours, with a citrus and lime burst on the palate further enhanced by Finger Lime. Native Juniper (Boobialla) is evident in the floral, perfumed aromatics, while spicy notes of Pepper Berry balance the citrus flavours. Strawberry Gum, Lemon Myrtle and Anise Myrtle provide green, leafy herbaceous characters which replicate traditional English Juniper resin characters.

Poor Toms Fool's Cut at 52% is for audacious gin drinkers looking for a spirit with strong Juniper presence. In looking to create a gin with enough presence to shine in strong cocktails, the more delicate, floral botanicals have been left out. So it's adios strawberry gum leaf, granny smith apples, lemon myrtle and dried chamomile, and hello loads of juniper and the earthy depth of liquorice root.

Born of the forest and distilled with a unique blend of botanicals, including the mystical mandrake root, our premium addition to the Nosferatu Distillery Gin family is the stuff of legend. As folklore would have it, imminent death awaits those who hear its scream. Beware of the root. Beware of the cry. Mandrake Cucumber & Mint Gin has arrived.

A well rounded Citrus gin, prominent juniper base balanced with Mandarin and hints of Lemon Myrtle finished with Mint & Ginger.

A Unique, herbed and buttered Gin produced in small 200L batches in the urban Darling Distillery. Layers of bright citrus from fragrant orange, mandarin and native myrtle melt into the warmth of Tasmanian pepperberry and the heady spice of coriander and lemongrass. Earth undertones of fresh picked rosemary and green tea are rounded by lashings of rooftop honey and the textural finish of freshly churned butter.

This one is sugar and spice and all things nice. You can drink this on it's own and taste the warmth of the ginger and cinnamon, the spice of the pepper and the sweetness of the lemomgrass and fig. Pair it with a traditional tonic and a slice of orange.

Shirl the Pearl 2020 Harvest, a seasonal edition Cumquat Gin with fresh uplifting notes, zesty characteristics, and a long finish. Expect refreshing waves of orange blossom. Eddie’s grandmother Shirley aka ‘Shirl the Pearl’ was a pocket rocket. Adventurer, skier, and one of Australia’s first female pilots, Shirl also made a mean bootleg Cumquat Gin. Inspired by Shirl, we steep locally grown Cumquats in our Brookie’s Dry Gin for several months and balance the spirit to create springtime in a glass! This is her recipe and an ode to Shirl the Pearl.
