The addition of finger limes & fresh ginger during the distillation process highlight Asian spices like coriander & star anise. Finally, fresh turmeric adds a fresh but earthy quality, not unlike dill, & weight to the palate. The resulting gin has lifted aromatics of lime curd, pine needles & fragrant spices with a vanilla character which pulls the spices together. The palate is intense
- sweet & juicy
- but it is still very clean.

It is spicy but with great citrus aromas & flavours. The cinnamon & star anise add rich fruitcake tones, the Tasmanian pepperberry leaf provides warmth rather than heat, & the lemon myrtle is a beautiful alternative to lemon peel. The highly aromatic oranges support the spicier botanicals. A strikingly pure gin, so pure in fact that it can be drunk chilled & on its own. ...

Sip it neat over ice or try it in a Tuxedo, a classic cocktail made with gin, Sherry & orange bitters. The addition of a tiny amount of Spanish Amontillado Sherry has added some length & sweetness to the final gin. The Sherry cask solera is made up of 42 ex-Sherry barrels from a friend of the Four Pillars distillery who happens to make famous Australian fortified wines. Theyre much older than their Chardonnay barrels, varying in age from 15 to 35 years old. These barrels were first filled more than a year ago, & this is the first solera release taken only from the bottom row of barrels. The barrels are never emptied
- a small portion from each barrel is taken out, which is then replenished from the row above. Fresh gin is only ever put into the top row of barrels creating a traditional solera system. Slightly deeper in colour, this is a rich, intense & layered barrel-aged gin. A pine needle quality underpins some amazing complexity. The residual Sherry character has integrated beautifully with the deeper cassia & star anise flavours
- think dried fruits & nuts.

Four Pillars Spiced Negroni Gin is a highly aromatic, rich & (yes) spicy gin with great power & intensity. First, they took their base botanicals & upped the amount of Tasmanian pepperberry leaf & cinnamon. Then they added an exotic West African spice called Grains of Paradise; one of the most unusual spices in the world, with clove & Sichuan characters. But although very powerful, the spice tends to glow rather than become hot. They also decided to use local, organic blood oranges in the botanical basket, as well as some ginger. These wonderfully fragrant fresh botanicals help lift the spice to another level. Finally, they opened up the plates to add weight & intensity to the gin. Four Pillars Spiced Negroni Gin was the first in their Bartender Series of gins. It was the result of a conversation in 2014 between the Four Pillars Distiller & one of Australias top bartenders, Jason Williams. Together they wanted to create a gin specifically for the Negroni something to cut through the Campari & vermouth. As the Negroni has always been a favourite at Four Pillars, Cameron jumped at the chance to make the first collaboration in their Bartender Series a tribute to the very definition of a perfectly balanced cocktail. ...

A premium Single Barrel Bourbon with a taste you'll want to savour again & again. Complex, full bodied & surprisingly smooth with a long finish that's unbelievably mellow. Sold only in Europe. A classic Bourbon. Very long. Very sweet. Very elegant.
- Michael Jackson Best American Whiskey Under 10 years Old.
- Whisky Magazine 2005 Best of Best Awards Master Distiller's Mellow Choice: It's a single barrel so it's too complex, full-bodied & mellow to drink any way but straight up or on the rocks. Find a comfortable chair, or a hammock under a tree, pick up a guitar (heck, even if you don't play) & have a mellow moment by yourself, or invite someone over & enjoy a sip or two with a friend.

A worldwide favourite, especially when creating mixed drinks with a sophisticated, contemporary flare. Smooth, mellow with a unique, long finish. 80 proof. Master Distiller's Mellow Choice: The Perfect Manhattan
- This is a great variation on the classic Manhattan recipe. Not too sweet. Just right with a little bit of citrus that works perfectly with the mellow flavours of Four Roses Yellow Label. This drink is something that adds a mellow touch to just about any social occasion.
- Jim Rutledge Three parts Four Roses Yellow Label. One part dry vermouth. One part sweet vermouth. Shake ingredients over ice. Pour into chilled Martini glass. Serve with twist of lemon or orange (lemon is the traditional garnish, however, orange treats the flavours of the Bourbon more gently.)

Gentle hints of burnt rubber. Finish: Complex, lingering notes of cinnamon, honied-ginger, bitter cacao. A warming, astringent persistence that builds with each sip.

Light notes of peppery celeriac, fresh ginger, & cacao. Palate: An initial rush of raspberry jam quickly becomes a lovely slice of fruitcake full of plump dates & walnuts. Finish: Warming, but leading seamlessly into a tangy, prickly, black pepper spice that develops into a gentle smokey, finish of astringent black tea & oak.
