ALC: 43% Take your tastebuds for a bushwalk, all from the comfort of your 852 couch. This gin celebrates proper native Aussie flavours, from the tart-as-hell Finger Lime to the super-savoury Desert Lime. Building on the Barossa Valley base grape spirit, Applewood add Peppermint Gum Leaf, Saltbush, Pepperberry, Wattleseed and a host of other botanicals. Bottom’s up! Proper Australiana stuff, this. Immersed in the wild, rich landscape of ‘straya, Applewood champions the true-blue botanicals they find right at their doorstep. Brendan and Laura Carter started out as winemakers, so they know their landscape and native ingredients. But with Applewood, they also want to recognise the indigenous custodianship that maintained the land for thousands of years.
