Gin!

Never Never Distillery in McLaren Vale

It's the first gin flight tasting I've had where they put the tonic when they are served so you don't get a chance to taste the gins properly

We are doing a gin tasting in Melbourne street in a couple of weeks time. Son and partner did one at Settlers - in McLaren Vale and loved it. But it started at 10am and by 10.30 they were shnikered! Pure gin.

At the wine cellars or somewhere else
 
A new gin joint in Hobart, by Forty Spotted, the Ginstitute. As well as a bar there are workshops where you create your own (sorta like d'Arenberg at McLaren vale for wine ...)


That's probably paywalled, so just a little extract:

“You get to walk away with a bespoke gin that you’ve created.

“What I really hope is that people walk away thinking it was a lot of fun, but I also hope that they gain a new understanding of how a gin blender makes the product that ends up in their glass.

“They’ll never experience gin the same way again.”

When the bar opens on November 27, guests will experience a selection of unique Tasmanian-inspired gin coughtails and more than 20 of the world’s rarest and most exciting gins.
 
I am a moderate gin drinker and have recently fallen in love with 23rd st gin.

Its blown me away and i rate it above all the main stream ones eg bombay, tanqueray, hendricks, botanist,
 
Tanq 10 at $65 before above discounts looks appealing

Can't do overseas gin's anymore.... just prefer to support local

Here are a couple of amazing locals:

"Delightful aromas lure you in before the fruit and floral notes dance across your taste buds. Juicy and fruity, without being sweet, this is the gin you want in your tonic on a hot summer's day " The Gin Queen
 
We are going to a Gin distillery in an hour or so to taste and mix our own.

You got me so excited, I thought they opened up in Melbourne!
I just spent 5 mins searching for the address

Damn you:)

I recently bought a slew of gins for Christmas.

I chose international though as I was looking for something different, interesting flavours that weren't just tons of juniper.
