Liquid gold on World Gin Day? We’ll drink to that!
King Island Distillery is already making waves to rival those of Bass Strait, with Heidi’s Native Gin.
Handcrafted with a collection of King Island and Australian native ingredients, some of which Heidi harvests by hand.
The Native Gin is traditionally distilled in 55-litre copper pot-stills.
“I tried and tested a mix of native botanicals many times, to discover a blend that works harmoniously together to create the right recipe for a classic dry gin,” Heidi says. “I distil in small batches with my ‘Copper Angels’, fulfilling the dream of capturing the taste of our King Island spirit in a bottle.”
There’s also a newly-released barrel-aged gin, which is matured in coopered barrels aboard a working lobster boat.
“The gin matures around the seas of our lovely island and looks like liquid gold,” Heidi says.
This is a sensational story, thank you!! Love the GINtastic review from Eat it Tassie. Extra special for this to be released on our happy World Gin Day.
