Metaxa Private Reserve Brandy

They say that to be Mediterranean is to have a different attitude. Certainly this claim is reflected in Metaxa. When speaking of this unique spirit, we should not merely consider it a brandy, for while it is produced from grapes, its similarities to brandy end there. Metaxa was first created by a silk trader named Spyros Metaxas who in 1882 built a distillation's factory in the city Chyphisia in the Attica region near Athens. A blend of Savatiano, Sultanina and Black Corinth grapes are employed in its production. These are twice distilled to 60% Alc./Vol., then reduced with aged muscat wine from Samos & Lemnos. Further blending continues utilising a mix of botanicals including anise and rose-petals. Then finally, the spirit is married in limousine oak casks. Metaxa is generally available in three versions: Three Star, Five Star, and Seven Star. Each star represents one year spent in oak. The product has earned world recognition for its quality, colour and taste and is distinguished as the most famous Greek spirit worldwide, over and above ouzo. Now in Australia, a selection of Super Premium Metaxa bottlings are available including the much sought after Private Reserve. This limited production spirit consists of fine distillates aged up to thirty years from Metaxa's family casks and is the high point of the Metaxa range. No tasting notes available. 40% Alc./Vol.

Hennessy V.S.O.P Privilege Cognac

Since 1765, Maison Hennessy has perfected the art of cognac-making, a tradition perpetuated by eight generations of Master Blenders. A legacy of cultural openness lets Maison Hennessy shine around the world, wherever its celebrated cognacs are shared. In 1817, James Hennessy created a unique blend for the future King George IV of England. From the encounter of these two visionaries, was born the first Hennessy “Very Superior Old Pale,” know today as Hennessy V.S.O.P. The savoir-faire of the Maison Hennessy is fully expressed in this balanced cognac: the selection of eaux-de-vie, aging and assemblage. A cognac of remarkable consistency and vitality, Hennessy V.S.O.P conveys all of the savoir-faire of the Hennessy master blenders who have ensured the continued success of this harmonious assemblage for 200 years. The key to a perfect bottle of VSOP starts at the roots. A tradition of careful aging in hand-crafted French oak barrels develops an eaux-de-vie’s unique expression. From ugni blanc grapes to V.S.O.P, the beauty of this blend is in the selection. It’s through the process of blending that eaux-de-vie becomes V.S.O.P. This Cognac has flavours and aromas of French oak, vanilla, cinnamon, candied fruit, and clove.

Ricard Aperitif

First created by Paul Ricard in Marseille, 1932 it has distinct fresh taste of liquorice and subtle Provence herbs. Aged in large barrel in the open air a slight 'sea-side' flavour is imparted by the salt spray that licks the barrels.

Don Julio Reposado Tequila

Don Julio González has a history in the art of making Mexico's most famous spirit dating back to 1942. With a reputation for exceeding the standards required to produce quality Tequila, Don Julio's Tequila's are at the heartbeat of Mexico. Don Julio Reposado Tequila is made from 100% premium Blue Agave plant and has become Mexico's highest selling super premium Tequila. The slow maturation of this tequila creates a complex range of flavours, ranging from citrus to rich honey and vanilla.

Hussong's Tequila Silver

Hussong’s Silver Tequila is made from 100% blue weber agave, harvested at a minimum age of 5 years, from both the lowlands and highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. A unique cooking method combining the old traditional way of cooking agaves in brick ovens and stainless steel autoclaves for 32-36 hours. The silver or blanco is tequila in its purest form. Unaged and crystal clear, this tequila is crisp, smooth and full of 100% Agave flavour. The aromas are bright, fresh cut grass, citrus and vanilla with similar flavours coming through on the palate along with some butterscotch and pineapple.

Four Pillars Olive Leaf Gin

After visiting Cobram Estate during olive harvest we realised olive oil could be a brilliant botanical alongside olive leaf. The aroma, flavour and texture of fresh olive is stunning, and we did a year of trials before finalising the recipe for this gin. The botanicals include a big base of juniper with a savoury overlay of coriander seed, rosemary, olive leaf, olive oil, bay leaf, lemon myrtle, macadamia, orris root, and fresh lemon and grapefruit. Fresh ingredients were vapour infused while the others macerated in the pot. We have used olive leaf and oil from Picual, Hojiblanca and Coratina varieties. This gin is savoury, textual and bright. Perfect for any Martini - Gibson, dirty or dry with a twist. For a longer drink, try it in a Spanish-inspired gintonic, with rosemary and lemon. Gold Medal Winner in the San Francisco 2020 International World Spirits Competition.

Four Roses Bourbon Whiskey

A big value, one litre direct import of the Kentucky Bourbon standard. The Four Roses distillery is located in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky on the banks of the Salt River in Anderson County. The distillery has a unique Spanish Mission-style architecture rarely seen in Kentucky and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The company attributes their product's quality to several factors: A unique Limestone water source, the spring-fed Salt River; a high quality grain source (Four Roses are the only distillery using the same grain source for 45 years, paying a premium for quality); Two Mash Bills in daily production - one mash bill contains significantly more rye than any other Bourbon, resulting in a spicy, full-bodied taste; and five proprietary yeast strains, each producing uniquely different flavours.

Stolichnaya Vodka

One of the worlds true Vodka icons, Stolichnaya is pure spirit distilled from selected grain is filtered through birch charcoal and quartz sands and blended with pure water.

Fortaleza Anejo Tequila

Tequila Fortaleza Anejo is made with 100% estate grown blue agave, aged in oak barrels for between 2 and 3 years until perfect. This amazing tequila is made using centuries old, traditional methods that have been passed down the generations. The outcome is a tequila which is unequalled in taste and smoothness. Caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, and cooked agave aromas practically jump from the glass in this highly praised and perfectly aged añejo. Butterscotch, caramel, toffee, citrus, and hazelnuts are common flavours that people identify.

Fortaleza Reposado Tequila

In 1999, Guillermo Erickson Sauza decided to bring back the old Sauza family distillery to life. Today he produces Tequila Fortaleza there using 100% stone-milled agave, entirely produced on the estate which lies right in the middle of the town of Tequila. Fortaleza Reposado Tequila is rested for 8 months. It has an amazingly soft texture with a vegetal sweetness balanced against soft and sweet vanilla notes from the ex-bourbon barrels in which it is rested.
