Archie Rose Distiller’s Strength Gin is the Signature Dry Gin with the intensity dialled up — an overproof expression packed with sixteen individually distilled botanicals, including fresh pears from Orange in NSW, rose petals, elderflower, pronounced juniper, and distilled honey sourced directly from the rooftop beehives at the Rosebery distillery. Distinguished, complex, and intense, this is a gin for those who love bigger, bolder flavours — awarded Double Gold at both the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the New York World Wine & Spirits Competition.
Appearance
Crystal clear with the luminous purity of a gin distilled with exceptional precision — deceptively calm in the glass for a spirit of this intensity and character.
Aroma
Floral, fruited, and complex — rose petals and elderflower lead a fragrant and expressive bouquet, with fresh pear adding a distinctive orchard fruit character and pronounced juniper providing the backbone. The distilled rooftop honey weaves through the aromatics with a softness and depth that is immediately distinctive.
Palate
Distinguished and intense, with the sixteen individually distilled botanicals revealing themselves progressively across a full-bodied and complex palate. Bigger and bolder than the Signature Dry, with the higher ABV carrying the botanical complexity with remarkable grace and the fresh pear and honey adding a richness and weight that sets this gin apart.
Serving Suggestions
Outstanding in a classic Martini, where the floral complexity and overproof intensity can take centre stage. Exceptional with premium tonic and a slice of fresh pear to echo the Orange NSW fruit in the botanical basket. Built to hold its character beautifully against ice and mixers — a gin that rewards bold cocktail making.
