Applewood Distillery
Core Range · The Desert

Gin.

Endemic botanicals, foraged and considered — the spirit of a continent.

What's Inside

The desert, distilled.

A grape-based spirit carrying twenty-five botanicals — Wattleseed, Strawberry Gum, Desert Lime and Saltbush among them. Some are so rare most Australians have never tasted them. Everything in the bottle is there for flavour; nothing is there for show.

The Tasting

A continent, read aloud.

01

Nose

Strawberry Gum and Native Thyme rise first — bright, resinous, faintly herbal. Then Juniper, grounding it all.

02

Palate

Wattleseed and roasted earth, citrus from Finger Lime, a saltbush minerality — dry, saline, stony.

03

Finish

Long, dry, eucalypt-cool — and slow to leave.

The Serve

The Wattle & Tonic.

No theatre. A heavy tumbler, good ice, and a tonic that knows when to stop. Garnish with a single strawberry-gum leaf, bruised.
