About this deal

When you come to the distillery, you are called to dive deeper into how our spirits are created. We invite you to take a behind-the-scenes look at how we craft distinctive spirits that rival the best in the world, to explore how we use foraged marine and native botanicals to make our range of locally produced Australian spirits and to study our craft. We’ll share what we know so that you can become an expert on artisanal whisky, vodka and gin. While gin has a long history in places like The Netherlands and the United Kingdom, it’s made in all corners of the globe. While not often thought of historically as a gin destination, Australia has become a great country to be a gin drinker in the last decade or so with many craft and artisanal distilleries cranking out amazing, noteworthy gins. Add to that, Australia is starting to become known as a gin destination all over the world after capturing some of the biggest awards at the 2022 World Gin Awards.

Vanessa Wilton, creative director of Manly Spirits, added: “We set our sights on creating a gin that pushes the boundaries of deliciousness, and partnering with local artist Tegan Franks to create a label celebrating the quintessential summer flavours of mango, pineapple, and coconut and that captures the Aussie beach lifestyle, made perfect sense.” The final recipe is a mix of tropical fruits, local coastal ingredients and classic Australian dry botanicals:

Our distillery has two gorgeous Holsten stills dedicated to the production of our white spirits range. During production our stills, Bella and Jordan, are meticulously monitored by our Distillers for key timings. We choose not to use automatic cuts but rely on the well-tuned noses of our craftsman to ensure we extract as much flavour as possible from our botanicals while maintaining the balance of a pure, clean spirit. Juniper, sea parsley, mango, rainforest lime, coconut, finger lime, banana, coriander, pineapple, angelica, blood orange and orris. Add all ingredients beside the soda water to a shaker and shake vigorously. Pour into a glass of ice. Fill the rest of the glass with soda water. Garnish with a slice of lemon and add a straw.The teal blue label shows a surfers and beach goers swimming among the sea life often found on the Northern Beaches of Australia.

In the most basic sense, gin is a neutral grain distilled spirit that is infused with juniper berries and various other herbs and botanicals, based on the individual recipe. While flavour profiles vary, you can bet it will be floral and piney. How is Gin Made? Australian producer Manly Spirits Co has extended its gin range with a limited edition release called The Beaches. The Beaches bottle label brings the essence of summer to lifeThis tour and tasting will show you how Manly Spirits make their gins, botanical vodka and liqueurs, from the raw ingredients to the stills and bottling.

Separating Australian gin from the rest of the world, the spirits expert confirmed that there are a few common traits that are unique to the domestic market. With just about every distillery and their cat (it’s a thing) making at least one expression, with many offering seasonal limited releases and barrel-aged examples, if you’re not already drinking the stuff then now’s the time to start. And ‘I got really drunk on it once when I was a teenager and now I can’t touch the stuff’is not a valid excuse. Manly Spirits Co.

Tom Collins Similar to vodka, gin is made by distilling a neutral grain alcohol from grapes, wheat, barley, or some other fruit or grain. Here’s where it deviates from vodka though.
