Inspired by a generational Brook family recipe, a limited-edition Kumquat Gin every enthusiast will be jumping to add to their bar cart. Shirl the Pearl, is a bright, citrusy and uplifting number that pairs the natural acidity and mild bitterness of Australian kumquats with the unique flavour profile of Brookie’s Dry Gin.

If you’ve ever had the chance to enjoy a nip of Brookie’s Slow Gin, you will perhaps know that it is crafted by first distilling our Brookie’s Byron Dry Gin and then allowing this to rest with hundreds of kilos of Davidson's Plums. The maceration process varies depending on the time of year the batch is laid to rest and can average 300+ days from start to finish, providing us with one very ironically named gin.

Although our Gin tastes great at home, we've missed having you at our distillery! In light of the recent lift to the NSW restrictions, we're excited to welcome you back for small group tasting sessions, starting this Saturday, the 16th of May!

It’s official, Mac. just won ✨World's Best Nut Liqueur & Best Australian Nut Liqueur ✨at the World Liqueur Awards, London 2020 Launched at the end of January 2019, this masterfully created little nutter combines the richness of roasted macadamia nuts with the coffee, cacao and hazelnut flavours from toasted Australian wattleseed.
