Our Bush Chook Pink Gin celebrates the traditional and the unexpected, creating a harmonious blend that delights the senses. Each botanical has been carefully selected for its ability to contribute to the gin’s distinctive floral and fruity character:
At the core of every gin, juniper berries provide a foundational crisp, piney note that underpins the gin’s complexity. In Bush Chook Pink Gin, juniper subtly complements the floral and fruity notes, ensuring the spirit remains unmistakably gin.
Introducing a delicate floral note, jasmine adds depth and elegance to the gin, enveloping the palate with its sweet, aromatic presence. This botanical is critical to the gin’s floral intrigue, offering an intoxicating and inviting scent.
A sweet, almond-like flavour enriches the gin with its fruity depth. This botanical contributes to the gin’s natural sweetness and provides a rich, nuanced layer that harmonizes beautifully with the lighter citrus and floral notes.
Injecting a burst of citrus, mandarin brightens the gin’s profile with its refreshing sweetness. This fruit’s zesty quality cuts through the floral and sweet flavours, adding balance and vibrancy.
A nod to classic confectionery, musk adds an unexpected twist with its soft flavour. This botanical creates a lingering sensory impression, adding complexity and a hint of nostalgia to the gin’s finish.
These fruits contribute to the gin’s well-rounded depth, offering a natural sweetness and a subtle tartness. Peach adds a soft, mellow sweetness, while grape brings a light acidity, enhancing the gin’s overall balance and drinkability.

Creating our Board Meeting Citrus Gin is a detailed process combining traditional distillation techniques with our own innovative methods. Here’s a glimpse into our process:
The creation of our Watering Hole Dry Gin is a detailed process that combines traditional distillation techniques with our own innovative methods. Here’s a glimpse into our process:
Each botanical is selected for its quality and flavour profile. The botanicals are then prepared, with some being macerated or infused separately to extract their full essence.
Our gin is distilled in small batches using a copper pot still, a method known for retaining the delicate flavours of the botanicals. The use of copper also removes sulphides, ensuring a smoother spirit.
The individual distillates are carefully blended to achieve the desired flavour balance after distillation. This step is where the artistry of gin-making truly shines, as the combination of different botanical distillates determines the gin’s final character.
Before bottling, the gin is allowed to rest, letting the flavours meld and mature, resulting in a smoother, more cohesive profile.
