Glaetzer-Dixon Amon Ra Shiraz
The Glaetzer family have been part of the Barossa winemaking scene since 1888 and now Ben takes over the reigns and produces Shiraz of the utmost intensity and concentration. Named after the ancient Egyptian god Amon-Ra who was the champion of the poor and troubled and was central to personal piety, the temple of Amon-Ra is believed to be the first to plant a vineyard to produce wine for the citizens of the temple. This incarnation is rich, full-bodied and viscous to the palate, yet with sublime oak integration and a balance on the back palate that is quite lifted allowing it to be paired with many meals and a prime candidate for medium to long term cellaring.
Dr Onyx Tonic Wax Platinum Whisky
Each 500ml spirit lid is manually dipped in wax with a silver foil swing tag, presented in a hand wax dripped, thick cardboard cylinder box. As each Gift Box is manually waxed, no two boxes are the same, some minor organic imperfections may be visible.Whisky:Distilleries began producing whisky in the late 18th century. The spelling of the term Whisky alters by country, Scottish, English, Welsh, and Canadian whiskies use Whisky, while the Irish use Whiskey. Scottish Whisky must be aged in oak barrels for a minimum of three years, where it is known as the spirit of the Gods. This might explain the Angels Tax, used to describe the amount of whisky lost each year to evaporation during the ageing process. They must be happy little Angels over Scotland. With more than 30 bottles of whisky exported from Scotland each second, theres clearly enough left over for the rest of us whisky lovers. Dr Onyx Just Whisky is the best tonic for those in need of a moment or two of quiet reflection.Serving Suggestions:Serve neat, over ice, with a little water or mixer such as dry ginger ale.
Willing Distillery Sweetheart's Navy Strength Gin

Big juniper and spice at the front of the palate, progressing through cardamon, cinnamon and finishing with lemon myrtle and citrus notes. Very versatile, great with soda or tonic makes a banging martini or negroni.

Patrón XO Café

Michter's US 1 Straight Rye Whiskey
Michters is Americas first distilling company, dating back to 1753 when they started out making rye whiskey.

This Rye is a brilliant whiskey with fresh spice notes and a lingering soft finish.

Redbreast 12 Year Old Irish Whiskey
Redbreast 12 Year Old Irish Whiskey is the quintessential example of premium Irish Whiskey, and considered to be the purest form of the art. With a history dating back to 1903 when John Jameson & Company entered into an agreement with Gilbeys Wines & Spirits Import Company to supply new make whiskey which was then 'bonded' in old sherry and port casks.

Laphroaig 10 Year Old Scotch Whisky
Laphroaig, founded in 1815 by brothers Donald and Alexander Johnston, has an extremely rich history; neighbourly disputes with Lagavulin and many ownership changes to name a couple. The 10 Year Old Single Malt is Laphroaig's signature malt that is full sparkling gold in colour and has that signature rich smoke and seaweed character with a hint of sweetness. Surprisingly the palate is rich with subtle sweet hints and complex layers of salt and peatiness that evolve on the palate and continue to the long and dry finish.
