As an Australian and specifically a Victorian I get my gin from Four Pillars distillary in Healesville. Their Olive Leaf Gin makes a very good martini. 1 part Maidenii Dry Vermouth with 3 parts gin. Yuzu Gin takes a nice G&T.
What about Bloody Shiraz Gin? Gin combined with Yarra Valley grapes? A crazy experiment using original Rare Dry Gin steeped with local cool-climate, Yarra Valley, Shiraz grapes.
Thanks for providing such a detailed explanation of the history of gin, Tricia! I appreciate learning more about this beverage, especially now that I have started to enjoy it myself! I have found some interesting gins produced in Portugal. My goal is to sample each and every one! -CW
