Little Lon Distilling Co Ginger Mick
Lets raise this bounteous bottle to Ginger Mick. Legendary larrikin and official bluey of Victorian Little Lon - written into Australian poetry folklore by C.J Dennis in the early 20th Century. Would he have approved of this lordly libation? This nectar, with its bright bouquet of orange and grapefruit, its notes of ginger and juniper emerging tellingly on the finish. This bottle with his name on it? I ner met a botl tha dinae av me name o it. hed probably have said. Suitably impressed. Bright and crisp citrus notes, bursting with the sweet and sourness of ruby grapefruit. Ginger Mick is pleasantly smooth, with a hint of ginger to tickle the back palette. Best enjoyed neat and wonderful herod in a Negroni or a Gin Old Fashioned.
Brogan's Way Hearts Afire
A warming spice-driven gin with a unique balance of savoury Australian native botanicals and aromatic winter spices. Sweet orange peel, native strawberry gum and macerated lilly pilli offers a gentle yet full bodied sweet backbone, which is warmed by the fragrant spicy notes of aniseed myrtle, cloves, nutmeg and cassia. Hot green cardamom and black peppercorn are carried through in the long nutty and coffee-like finish provided by the soft oils of native roasted wattle seed. A balanced savoury gin with a long warm and gentle spicy finish.G&T: Tall gin, short tonic45mL Hearts Afire Gin90mL Strangelove Dirty TonicPlenty of iceGarnish: Orange peelRouge Washed Martini60mL Hearts Afire GinCastanga Rouge Vermouth rinsed martini glassGarnish: Twist of orange balanced on the rim of the glass
'Fortune' Noosa Heads Distillery Signature Dry Gin
Little Lon Distilling Co Little Miss Yoko
This luscious limited, seasonal batch gin is in honour of Little Miss Yoko. Oriental Oomphess and seductress of Victorian-era Little Lon once inhabited the very house our distillery now resides in Would she have embraced this divine double distillate? This exquisitely balanced spirit ringing with tones of citrus and juniper, rounded off with a lychee fruit finish, and concocted specially in her honour? Honour all good, but if you want Little Miss Yoko, first you must pay. she might have said. Tartly. Little Miss Yoko hits you at first with vanilla, oak and baking spices and of course - Lychees. On second pass the fragrance of suppressed juniper and citrus tantalise the taste buds with a sweet lingering lychee fruit finish to round out the finish. Enjoy stirred down in a Martini, or in your favourite sour.
Never Never Triple Juniper Gin
Pine needle, brushed rosemary, lemon oil, earthy root extending into fragrant pepper. The palate is immediately fragrant with a bright citrus character up front. Oily and intense, the juniper is prominent, supported by the earthy undertones of angelica and orris root and extended by the addition of wooded spices and pepper. The finish is long and complex with a rich creaminess that dries out almost immediately. There is a changing dynamic of juniper, first bright and fragrant that develops into an earthy more resinous finish. The length is full and luxurious. The Triple Juniper is one of those drinks that makes you ask: Why on earth has nobody created a gin like this before? It is brimming with the brightness of the best juniper in the world, air freighted in for freshness. We treat the juniper in three distinct ways, partially steeped, partially in the pot and partially in the vapour, in carefully selected balance, to capture both the bright and the earthy qualities of this wonder berry. Well, it's actually the world's smallest conifer, but let's not get too technical. The copious amounts of juniper give you the best thing about gin in spades. But juniper is a force that needs managing. A carefully selected bouquet of botanicals honours the brilliance of the juniper by complementing it, rather than overpowering it. Australian coriander provides a brighter citrus and less earthiness than its English or Indian counterparts. A predominate fresh lemon citrus influence with a touch of fresh lime and liquorice lifts it up over a root base of angelica and orris. Native pepperberry provides a balancing savoury element without the heavy menthol finish of traditional peppers. A hint of cinnamon the just the right amount of warmth.

Lord Howe Island Distilling Co Wild Lemon & Hibiscus Gin
The wild bush lemons on Lord Howe Island descend from the fruits of the early settlers. They were planted to help sustain them during the long periods between passing ships. They have a unique enveloping aroma, but beware the thorns! In the days of ships and flying boats, a tradition on Lord Howe Island was to throw flower leis into the water from departing launch boats. They inevitably washed ashore to signify their wearers return to the island.
