Yarra Valley

Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin 700ml 41.8%

The Collective Review

The Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin is a masterful blend of classic gin and contemporary Australian heritage. Crafted with pure, triple-distilled Yarra Valley water, this gin is emboldened with European Juniper berries, South-East Asian spices, and two distinct native Australian botanicals: lemon myrtle and Tasmanian pepperberries. But what sets it apart is the use of whole organic oranges, which add an intense aroma and flavor to the mix.

This Australian citrus supports the spicier botanicals like cardamom, giving the gin an exciting intensity of flavor that even the most hardened gin fanatic would appreciate. The cinnamon and star anise add rich fruitcake tones, while the Tasmanian pepperberry leaf provides warmth without being too hot. And the lemon myrtle is a beautiful alternative to lemon peel.

No wonder this home-grown beauty shone on the world stage, scoring double gold at the 2016 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin truly captures the essence of contemporary Australia's heritage in Europe and Asia. It's a modern Australian gin that delivers the best of all worlds - a perfect, classic gin and something that would fascinate even the most discerning gin lover.

There's a very appealing spice-forward quality to the aromas of this Aussie gin, earthy cardamom and cinnamon in a gingery spice cake. It's very light on the palate, with the juniper lower down the scale than the crips tangerine peel quality. Round rather than oily, finishing herbal with a bit of a peppery twist at the end.'

Winemakers Note

We crafted our Rare Dry Gin to deliver the best botanical notes from all around the world. It captures the essence of contemporary Australia's heritage in Europe and Asia. European juniper berries, spices from South East Asia through to the Middle East. To that we added two native Australian botanicals, lemon myrtle and Tasmanian pepperberry. Cinnamon and star anise add rich fruitcake tones, the pepperberry leaf provides warmth rather than heat, and the lemon myrtle is a fragrant alternative to lemon peel. Finally, we use whole organic oranges that add a highly aromatic character, a fresh Mediterranean touch that supports the spicier botanicals like cardamom.
