The distillers at Brookie’s in Byron Bay have brought back one of their favourite pairings. Brookie’s Slow Passion Gin returns for this winter. When the inaugural release sold out in just a few days, the crew knew they had made a blend worth rebottling.
The locally sourced, indigenous Davidson Plum brings a tart, sweet, berry coulis profile to the rainforest inspired gin whilst the ‘Sweethearts’ passionfruit variety balances it with a fruity citrus tang. It makes for a perfect marriage on the palette.
A limited release, the Brookie’s Byron Slow Passion Gin is bottled at 26% ABV and expected to sell out quickly.
Perfect for cocktails or a winter's afternoon spritz, the Davidson Plums and locally sourced passion fruit were macerated and soaked in Brookie's classic Byron Dry Gin.
The fruits were grown on Brookie's acreage as well as being sourced from neighbours at Terania Creek Passionfruit, a family-run farm in the Northern Rivers hinterland.
“We are always looking for ways to innovate products, whilst highlighting what it is that makes our home of the Northern Rivers so truly unique. We are surrounded by local ingredients, ripe for the picking, whose flavours bring out the best in each other.
'It's the foundation of our rainforest Dry Gin and why these two fruits are a match made in gin heaven. Our neighbouring farms have everything we need to create this tasty product and we love that we can work with those we see around the town. It's a genuinely humbling community and business relationship that just so happens to make some damn fine gin,” said Eddie Brook, Distiller and Co-Founder of Brookie’s.
This limited release product can be purchased online, at the Cellar Door, in cocktail bars around the country and from premium independent retailers. Get your hands on this one of a kind, juicy duo before it’s gone and feel the love from within.
