Since Seadrift’s launch in 2019, the non-alcoholic drinks sector has soared, and Pink Gin is having a resurgence, creating an opportuity for Seadrift to launch a non-alcoholic option for the occasion.

“There is a huge shift taking place in Australia’s drinking culture, with the non-alcoholic sector rapidly increasing in response to a spike in sober-curious attitudes.

“Alcohol consumption is declining, with young Australians driving this trend as they embrace mindful drinking practices or avoid alcohol altogether,” said Carolyn Whiteley.

“Our Wild Hibiscus spirit like all our spirits are distilled from fresh botanicals, ensuring an intensity of taste as well as a real brightness to the products.

“Wild Hibiscus, like our Classic and Coast spirits, has been distilled in a small-batch run in traditional copper pot stills at our distillery here in Brookvale. The fresh hibiscus flowers gives our non-alcoholic gin its lovely pink colour, which not only looks beautiful but is completely natural and tastes delicious,” said Alistair Whiteley.

Seadrift Wild Hibiscus is available exclusively via the Seadrift Distillery online store.
