Adelaide Hills Distillery has launched a pink craft gin using native Australian and European ingredients.

The 78 Degrees Sunset Gin contains flavours of Strawberry Gum, Bush Apple, Juniper and Rosella, including fresh red berries with hints of pine and eucalyptus, the company says.

The ingredients have been designed to display pink and purple hues seen in unique Australian sunsets.

Distillery co-founder Tobias Kline said the decision to make craft pink gin was due to a growing demand for high-quality daytime gin options.

A 78-degree distillation process which involves individually vaporising each ingredient to achieve consistency means the gin is like rose wine rather than juniper-heavy, Kline says.

The 700ml bottles have an RRP of $74.99.
