“This had a more delicate nose but really pleasant with complex citrus notes. Supporting spice and herbal flavours kept the citrus bright and fresh right through to the finish, with a nice creamy texture. A lovely and well crafted example of the category.” – Tasting Australia 2024

Experimental Series – Mountain Yuzu, grown in Eurobin Victoria are the inspiration behind out latest gin.

This one is full produce led, and honestly, an opportunity we couldn’t resist.

Made in a traditional London Dry style, being single shot distillation, predominately juniper forward, our Yuzu Gin utilises organic Macedonia juniper, Australian organic coriander seed, liquorice root, green cardamon, cinnamon, fennel seed, angelica root and orris root to make this delicious vibrant juniper and bright yuzu forward gin.

This is our first experience with Yuzu and straight away, we had to play due to how super fragrant the Yuzu is, it is just amazing.  Just bit is how it carries through in distilling to make this pretty awesome gin.

The Yuzu flavour is hard to describe but lands somewhere between a mandarin, lime and grapefruit.

Honestly the beauty of this gin comes from the producer, Mountain Yuzu.

Located on the foothills of the Australian Alps in North East Victoria. Our 20-acre property is located on the Ovens River close to Mt Buffalo in the Upper Ovens Valley with spectacular views of the snow-capped Australian Alps nearby.

This pristine environment with deep rich volcanic soils, hot dry summers and cold wet winters is similar to the mountain areas on the island of Shikoku in Japan where yuzu are mainly grown. With ample average natural rainfall of around 1,200 mm per year, this really is the ideal place to grow such a wonderful fruit.

We hope you enjoy, but know you’ll be back.
