Marking a milestone for the independently owned Australian distillery, Archie Rose has launched a trio of 100 per cent Australian spirits, designed to serve as the foundation for any drink.
Aptly named Fundamental Spirits, the new three spirit range includes a True Cut Vodka and a Straight Dry Gin, and a Double Malt Whisky, to be released later in 2023.
Staying true to the brand values, the trio of Fundamental Spirits features local, native and sustainably sourced ingredients.
The range was developed with the goal of providing more people with an uncommonly easy Australian spirits base for their favourite drinks.
The True Cut Vodka offers a more neutral palate than Archie Rose’s popular Native Botanical Vodka. It is cold distilled using Australian wheat, local botanicals, and triple filtered water.
The Straight Dry Gin is also cold distilled with a simplified array of native and reclaimed Australian botanicals compared with the distillery’s gins to date, starring lemon myrtle, orange peel and pink peppercorn.
Completing the range, the Double Malt Whisky combines a solera of Single Malt and Rye Malt Whisky, featuring NSW heritage rye and barley malts, matured in ex-apera (sherry), bourbon and virgin oak casks.
Despite the recent popularity of home soil created spirits, Archie Rose says 90 per cent of the current market still drink imported gin.
The Fundamental Spirits range was made possible by the inception of Archie Rose’s new distillery in Botany, Sydney, which the company says has assisted significantly in expanding its production techniques and capacity.
True Cut Vodka and Straight Dry Gin is available via the Archie Rose Bar & Cellar Door, website and in bars and bottle shops around Australia, and the Double Malt Whisky will launch in 2023.
