Time is flying when you’re in the Australian outback. • • • #timelapse #australia #aussie #hillrisecottage #moyston #travel #journey #trip
Tomorrow I’ll be heading Down Under for some glorious gin exploring in southern Australia. The highlight of the trip is of course @junipalooza in Melbourne later this month. But along the way I’ll be visiting a vast selection of distilleries in the Melbourne and Sydney area. I’ve already made a few arrangements with local distilleries, but in case I’ve missed a few, which distilleries in Victoria and New South Wales do you think are absolute musts? I would appreciate every suggestion and tip you’ve got. • • • • #australia #aussie #gintrip #gintravel #travel #downunder #melbourne #sydney #ginjourney #exploring #distillery #instabrain #help #suggestion #tips @theginqueenau
[Advertisement] Sometimes rules are there to be broken. Last year I decided to stop accepting bottles from gin producers and distributors to get away from the hundreds of inquiries about posting and writing about their gins. Since then I’ve only accepted four gins. Four gins in a year! That’s almost the same amount I accepted a week in 2014-2017 (I had a lot of gin back then). • But sometimes a gin comes along you just can’t let go. Like this Gin Crespo from Ecuador I presented on a tasting earlier this week. It’s simply a stunner. From every angle. Being a(n amateur) photographer I had to photograph this beautiful bottle. Test every angle. And apparently it doesn’t have a bad angle! • The Gin Crespo bottle is an Art Deco design with some similar details as the Le Tribute bottle. Rippled in a way that catches and enlightens even the faintest bit of light. Stunning. Gorgeous. • • And the gin isn’t half bad either. Unlike most other gins coming out of South America these years it’s not flavoured with exotic and fruity botanicals from the Amazon rainforest. 11 traditional gin botanicals where the most odd botanical is dill seeds. So this is a South American interpretation of a London Dry Gin. Pretty exciting! • Even though the piney notes from the juniper is a bit overshadowed by the coriander seeds, cardamom, bitter orange and earthy angelica it’s quite well balanced and delicious. And works incredibly in a Gin & Tonic with a classic Indian Tonic and garnished with a slice of fig and a sprig of rosemary. • So yeah, I broke my own rule. Again. But how could I not?! It’s so pretty! • • • Gin: @gincrespo • • #gincrespo #crespogin #crespo #gin #ecuador #ecuadorian #southafrica #beauty #imafan #fanboy #breakingrules #rulesareforfools #artdeco #bottle #photogram #ginlove #ginphoto @gincrespo @kjaercompany
