After all the wet weather the East-coast of Australia has been having in 2022, Wine Sellers Direct is pleased to offer you a little ray of sunshine in a bottle. This new gin from the Wild Hibiscus Distilling Company is the Wild Hibiscus Snow Flower Gin.
Crafted from Passionfruit grown in Tully (Far North Queensland), a region famous for having the highest annual rainfall in Australia. Infused slowly with hand picked Snow Chrysanthemum Flowers from the Kunlun Mountains of Tibet, which impart a warm sunny hue to the gin and add a layer of complexity not found in any other gin.
These flowers burst out of the snow in early spring are hand picked in the morning above 4,000m in elevation and then carefully dried by small lot farmers in the Kunlun Mountains.
There is so much passionfruit in this gin the distillery had to invent a ‘fresh botanical vortex chamber’ for their big still, named "Iris". It’s huge and its purpose is to vapour distill the aroma and flavour out of the freshly scooped passionfruit pulp.
The vapour then passes through their second oversized botanical basket which contains Bulgarian high altitude juniper, Madagascan vanilla and Australian coriander seed.
