Visit product page →Bloody Shiraz Gin 3.0 is Four Pillars' third crack at a gin that started as a whimsy and has become something of a phenomenon.
Batch distilled Four Pillars gin steeped with Yarra Valley Shiraz grapes -the gin is an incredibly rich, deep purple colour, which turns iridescent pink when mixed with tonic or soda. Aromatically it has fresh pine needles, citrus and spice, and a clear peppery, dense raspberry character. The palate is lovely and sweet, with a long juniper and spice character on the finish. Like shiraz wine, the character and flavours in the gin evolve with time in the bottle. Recommended to drink it within two years of the vintage.ABV: 37.8% Volume: 700mlOrigin: Healesville, Vic, Australia

GIN DROP #1 — AUGUST 2017
Capreolus Distillery Garden Tiger Gin 47% ABV 500ml
The Capreolus Distillery is located in master distiller and founder Barney Wilczak’s childhood home in the Cotswolds, in a converted lean-to greenhouse. An astonishing 34 botanicals go into the production of this gin, yielding complexity and harmony without over doing it. Having won the award for The Whisky Exchange’s 2017 ‘Spirit of the Year’, this gin has presented itself as a world-class product that has been finely tuned and carefully crafted after hundreds of test distillations and blends. (Yes, you read that right—a company called “The Whisky Exchange” chose a gin for spirit of the year. That should tell you everything you need to know.) It showcases a fine orange citrus with gentle spice backbone and lingering fruit. This gin drinks incredibly well on its own, but it also lends itself very well to a G&T or a martini.

WHISKY DROP #1 — AUGUST 2017
Kilchoman 100% Islay 7th Edition 50% ABV 700ml
Established in 2005, Kilchoman is the first new Islay distillery to open its doors in 124 years. In addition, they are the only Islay distillery to grow and malt their own barley, which makes them the only ones to produce barley to bottle whisky on the island. That said, this is an expression of just that principal. 100% Islay is all about showcasing the essence of Kilchoman spirit, exhibiting gentler peat than their other range and using fresh and refill bourbon barrels (Buffalo Trace, to be specific) to really encourage the integrity of the spirit to shine. Distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2017, the 7th Edition is the latest and oldest release of 100% Islay. The 7th Edition of 100% Islay is yet to be released in Australia—which means that you, the subscribers, get first crack at this whisky. We’ve secured half of Australia’s allocation exclusively for The Whisky Drop, so if you were looking for any further encouragement, this would be it.
