Brookie's Byron Slow Gin 700mL — Davidson Plum steeped in Byron Dry Gin, award-winning, rainforest-crafted in Byron Bay, Australia. A truly unique slow gin.

Tasting Notes

Appearance

Deep ruby-crimson in the glass, with a rich, jewel-like hue that speaks to the generous steeping of Davidson Plum. The colour is vivid and inviting, with a natural translucency that catches the light beautifully.

Aroma

The nose is lush and fragrant — rose petals and watermelon lead the way, followed by bright plum and a gentle undercurrent of native botanicals. There's a subtle earthiness from the rainforest-foraged ingredients that gives the aroma real depth and a distinctly Australian character.

Palate

Exhilarating and fruit-forward, with Davidson Plum at the fore — tart, vibrant, and beautifully balanced by the floral sweetness of rose and the juicy freshness of watermelon. The Byron Dry Gin base lends structure and botanical complexity, while the finish is long, gently sweet, and refreshingly clean.

Pairs With

Brookie's Byron Slow Gin is wonderful served over ice with premium tonic and a slice of fresh watermelon, and pairs equally well with sparkling wine as a spritz; it also complements a cheese board, dark chocolate, and light summer desserts with great elegance.

Production Notes

Cape Byron Distillery's Brookie's Byron Slow Gin is crafted in the traditional style of the English sloe gin, substituting the classic sloe berry for the Davidson Plum — a rare rainforest fruit native to the subtropical hinterland of Byron Bay. The Davidson Plums are hand-steeped in Brookie's Byron Dry Gin, itself distilled with native botanicals foraged from the heart of Cape Byron Distillery's local rainforest. Time is the key ingredient; the slow steeping process allows the plum's vivid colour, tartness, and floral character to fully infuse the spirit, creating a gin that is as distinctive in flavour as it is in provenance. Hand-crafted on the distillery's farm, every batch reflects the unique terroir of one of Australia's most celebrated coastal regions.

History

Brookie's Byron Slow Gin holds the distinction of being the first slow gin of its kind — a pioneering expression that introduced the Davidson Plum to the world of craft spirits. Since its debut, it has amassed an extraordinary collection of international accolades, including multiple Platinum and Gold medals at the SIP Awards, Gold at the World Gin Awards, Gold at the International Wine & Spirit Competition, and Best in Show at the USA Spirits Ratings. Recognised by Difford's Guide with five stars and an Outstanding Quality certification, Brookie's Byron Slow Gin has firmly established Cape Byron Distillery as one of Australia's most acclaimed and innovative craft distilleries.
