Applewood Distillery - Baby Malt (Moonshine)

From the very inception of Applewood Distillery, our aim was to craft beverages that displayed a flavour of 'place' - from the land we belong to.

Crafted from 100% South Australian malt fermented, distilled and matured at the Applewood Distillery in the Adelaide Hills. Maturation occurred for 6 months in small 50L re-coopered tawny casks, 80 years of age and uncharred

The malted barley used in this malt is from the northern part of South Australia and home to some of the best malting barley in the world.

Applewood Distillery

Being winemakers, we're two people incredibly passionate about the soil and produce we have in Australia. It's our contention to showcase products to the rest of the world that embrace Australian native ingredients and pay homage to the custodianship of the indigenous people who maintained the land for thousands of years.

It's this passion that has driven us to start two wine labels, one that protects our farmers and another that protects our future. We've since taken these concepts and with our distillery, applewood - catapulted it into the horticultural realm - studying indigenous produce, it's beneficial effects on our land and the stories it can tell through incredible colours, flavours, and textures.

We seek Australian identity in the products we craft and the services we offer. We seek ways to communicate this with an entirely new demographic.
Our hope is that these Australian stories can one-day be heard on a global scale.

Tasting Notes

A strong nose of bright citrus quickly makes way for a bold, earthy and floral bouquet. On the palate, orris commands whilst coriander seed tingles warmly and finally finishes with hints of peppercorn spice and fresh juniper

23rd Street Distillery - Signature Gin

You’re trying to be nonchalant with your sophisticated botanical gin but all the while tiny explosions of Riverland sunshine tickle your palate. It’s the underlying citrus from fresh local mandarin and lime that makes Twenty Third Street gin a particularly jovial drop.

METHOD

23rd Street's distiller individually infuses ten botanicals including traditional juniper and coriander, complemented by zesty local citrus. Astute blending is key, creating a layered palate and full-bodied mouthfeel.

TASTING NOTES

Aromas are led by juniper, Riverland mandarin and coriander, with hints of spices. On the palate, juniper is closely followed by a mandarin middle and fresh lime on the back palate. Spices support with softness and complexity. Enjoy neat, as the star of a cocktail or mixed with tonic or soda and garnished with citrus.
