Olive Leaf Gin, our most exciting release since Bloody Shiraz and maybe even Rare Dry Gin…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe genesis of this gin was back in 2015 when we distilled a little drop called Cousin Vera’s Gin. Made with our friends at Santamanía in Madrid, this was\u003cstrong\u003e our first foray into savoury, Mediterranean-inspired gin flavours.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCousin Vera’s Gin came and went pretty quickly, but remains a cult classic in the Four Pillars canon for those who crave that savoury style. From that moment on, we knew gin and olives would combine beautifully and a trip to the olive groves of northern Victoria confirmed it for us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOLIVES, OLIVES, OLIVES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter visiting Cobram Estate during olive harvest in 2019 we realised olive oil could be a brilliant botanical alongside olive leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The aroma, flavour and texture of fresh olive is stunning, and we did an entire year of trials before finalising the recipe for this gin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese trials landed us on our final mix of Olive Leaf Gin botanicals: a big base of juniper with a savoury overlay of coriander seed, rosemary and bay leaf from my backyard, olive leaf, olive oil, lemon myrtle, macadamia, orris root, and fresh lemon and grapefruit.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCo-founder and distiller Cam Mackenzie\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a gin that is savoury, textural, bright and perfect for any Martini. But make sure to try it in a Gibson, Cam’s favourite. Stir 60mL gin, 10mL dry vermouth and 10mL dry sherry over ice, strain into a super cold glass and garnish with a couple of cocktail onions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFive years on from that trip to Spain, we’re pumped to finally share Olive Leaf Gin with the world.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Four Pillars Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53123040313709,"sku":null,"price":84.98,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/0821\/7709\/files\/11eae8d7cfe9e630a555023de6f0ad0c.jpg?v=1773407941","url":"https:\/\/www.plonk.net.au\/products\/four-pillars-olive-leaf-gin","provider":"Plonk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
