Hunter Valley Barrel Aged Gin

Born from our love of whisky, this is our first barrel aged gin, made to push texture and warmth as far as a gin can carry them. One barrel only: a single François Frères ex-Chardonnay barrique, six months in oak with one month on lees, worked with bâtonnage for extra depth and mouthfeel. 320 bottles exist. When they are gone, they are gone. Join The FAR Side for first word when the next one is ready.

Nose: Creamy vanilla, sparkling ruby grapefruit, fig and cinnamon.
Palate: Bright, fresh citrus over layers of spice, with macadamia and burnt butter underneath.
Finish: Biscuity, warm and long. The whisky drinker’s finish, on a gin.

Barrel: Single François Frères ex-Chardonnay barrique. Six months; one month on lees.

Serve: Neat or over ice. Exceptional in an Old Fashioned.

Limited edition. Only 320 bottles made.
