Pot & Still,

South Australian Fig Gin

29% ABV

Famous for his delectable Willabrand Glace Figs, in 2016, Willa Wauchope found himself with a surplus of fig syrup.

At a loss of what to do with the aromatic by-product, he turned to the talented distillers at Applewood.

The organically farmed figs are gently poached and the resulting syrup is then slowly added to a gin base.

Wauchope has since purchased two stills with the intention of creating his own spirits in the future.

Tasting notes:  

Bright gold.

Opens with a bouquet of fresh figs and traditional botanicals.

Brief air contact accents hints of lavender, lemon verbena and earthy juniper while the fruit retreats.

Pure and creamy with semi-sweet fig flavours dominating, finishing with delicate peel / herbal freshness.

Skillfully balanced. Try it with a wedge of lime.
