Four years ago, Luke created our very first batch of pink gin in honour of his partner, Jess, becoming a Mum and to celebrate the other incredible mothers and grandmother's in his life. Our Mother's Day Pink on Pink Gin Seasonal Release is here, and it's our best one yet.   This year, we've increased the number of botanicals for the batch and slightly reduced the ABV to 37%. We infused Pink Lady Apples, Ruby Grapefruit, Rhubarb, Pomegranate, Watermelon and Juniper to create a mum-worthy gin that's as delicious as it looks. From its natural pink hue, to the custom label artwork created by local artist Keira Wolf, this release is something to be treasured and celebrated, just like Mum. Pink on Pink gin is soft, floral and citrusy. As always, it's naturally coloured using the freshest and brightest pomegranates and produced and bottled by our family distillery with care. We hope you and your Mum get to enjoy this deliciously smooth tipple as much as we loved making it.Botanicals: Juniper, Watermelon, Pink Lady Apples, Rhubarb, Ruby GrapefruitABV: 37% Signature cocktail: Shiuma Rosa Cocktail (each purchase includes a complimentary tasting card and three cocktail recipes) Available from Thursday, 13th April 2023 - 12pm from both Miami & Albion Tasting Rooms only. All orders will be processed and available for pickup after the release date.

 At Granddad Jack's, staff mark their first anniversary by being given the opportunity to work alongside the production team to think up and create their very own spirit. The release is entirely their own, from concept to choosing the botanicals, putting together the label, distilling the product and sharing their story. But, when your family, this doesn’t usually apply… Luke wanted to surprise his partner Jess with her very own release this year since she’s been with Granddad’s well before it opened five years ago.    Jess is our Marketing Manager & Brand Guardian. She has been working in the family business since its conception in 2018, with her role continuously evolving and developing with the brand. She’s a mum to their two boys, 4.5yr old Archer and 5-month-old Arlo, and currently looks after all of the marketing for Granddad Jack’s. Her diverse role includes everything from managing our digital media & design, socials & content creation, website development, copywriting, planning events & activations, managing new product development & limited releases, operations, procurement, cost management and freight & communication with our export partners. Over the years, she’s developed processes across the business, worked in the warehouse, looked after admin and finance and handled all of the customer service for the business. So, if you message us on socials, receive an email (including this one), visit the website, attend any events, or see any of our content (especially with hands or props), Jess is one of the two-person marketing team making it all happen behind the scenes. We're so excited to be able to share her story with you and introduce this special limited staff release. To create this release, Jess worked with Luke to create a cheeky alcoholic version of her favourite campfire treat. The base, a marshmallow essence that carries a slight smokiness. Next, a drizzle of honey and a pinch of cinnamon strikes the right balance and conjures the taste of crunchy, buttery graham crackers. Lastly, strong notes of rich cocoa, paired with a hint of vanilla, add a creamy sweetness that imitates the molten chocolate that binds all of the gooey goodness.  “Growing up, the best stories and tastiest treats always seemed to come when sitting by a fire. Whether we were on a camping trip, making bonfires with Nan & Pop down the block, or cozied up by the fireplace - a crackling fire, a stick, and a bag of marshmallows were all we needed for a stellar evening. It felt like time would slow, and worries would fade. It’s that same toasty magic and warmth that we’ve bottled up in my very own staff release as a tribute to my most cherished childhood memories. With every sip, I hope you’re transported to a place of warmth, laughter, and a touch of marshmallowy mischief. This toasty tipple makes a cozy campfire companion and is a spirit  that will leave you asking S’more Please.” - Jess Hartley, Marketing Manager There’s no wrong way to enjoy s’mores, and this spirit is no exception. Enjoy with Long Rays Pacific Tonic, with Coke or Pepsi, make a hot or cold chocolate with your favourite milk or try our signature cocktail, Toasty Tipple.  Ingredients: Chocolate, Malt Biscuits, Marshmallows, Sugar Syrup ABV: 35%

Introducing Vendela's Staff Release "Across The Sea" Vodka. This one-of-a-kind spirit will take your taste buds on a journey across continents. This vodka blend brings together the creamy sweetness of vanilla ice cream and the bold, exotic flavour of saffron. "Ice cream is my favourite thing in the world. It's not just a dessert but a source of comfort and joy that can transport me back to enjoying a soft, creamy vanilla ice cream in Sweden. On the other hand, my passion for saffron was ignited during a trip to Venice, where I enjoyed the best meal of my life, a ravioli with saffron sauce. I became obsessed with its distinct, aromatic flavour. For my release, I wanted to incorporate this unique flavour combination as a reflection of my two homes and unwavering love for both ice cream and saffron." - Vendela Rivelsrud Crafted with the highest quality ingredients and meticulous attention to detail, Granddad Jack's Saffron and Vanilla Ice Cream Vodka is the perfect addition to any cocktail or served simply over ice. So why not embark on a flavour journey 'Across The Sea' and indulge in a glass of this unique limited release today? skål - Cheers ABV: 40% Tasting Notes:Nose: Floral, Sweet Cream, Meringue Palate: Warm sweet, and floral spice from saffron, coated with a toffee caramel, cream mouthfeel from the vanilla beans, meringue and condensed milk. Ingredients: Condensed Milk, Whey Powder, Vanilla Beans, Meringue Kisses, A Sh*t Tonne of Saffron Production: When most ‘saffron’ spirits only use a few grams, we used close to 30g of saffron to bring Vendela’s vision to life in her staff release. Mica and Vendela worked closely together to create the vodka. They macerate condensed milk, whey powder, meringue kisses, vanilla beans and saffron. Then cooked and vapour infused the spirit with extra vanilla beans and meringue to add sweetness. They added a house-made saffron syrup to finish the spirit, adding extra colour and a truly silky and creamy mouthfeel.
