Story
Four Pillars Gin, founded in 2013 in the Yarra Valley, Australia, has rapidly gained acclaim in the craft gin market. Renowned for its quality and distinctive flavours, Four Pillars emphasises a blend of traditional and native Australian botanicals. The company's flagship product, Rare Dry Gin, features juniper berries, citrus, and spices, enhanced by native ingredients like lemon myrtle and Tasmanian pepperberry leaf. This combination creates a balanced and aromatic profile, setting it apart from conventional gins.
Four Pillars is dedicated to sustainability and innovation. They repurpose waste from gin production into products like marmalade and gin-steamed Christmas puddings. Their sustainability efforts extend to their use of solar power and water recycling at their distillery.
The brand has won numerous awards, including being named International Gin Producer of the Year at the International Wine & Spirit Competition in 2019 and 2020. Four Pillars' success is attributed to its commitment to quality, sustainability, and the distinctive Australian twist in its botanicals, which have helped establish it as a leading name in the global gin industry.
This is Four Pillars' take on a classic Sloe Gin but with an Aussie twist. This beauty takes its colour from beautifully ripe Shiraz grapes, donning notes of earthy spice and elderberry, forest floor and potpourri. This is a gin with mid-palate fat and richness, with a real vinous element.

PAIRING GUIDE
Steeped in Yarra Valley Shiraz grapes, this astonishingly good purple gin is yet another thrilling example of innovative spirit making from Four Pillars. As you might expect, it’s pretty versatile when it comes to food pairing - cocktails made with this distillation are going to work wonderfully with berry-based desserts like pavlova, cherry tarte tatin and blueberry creme brulee, as well as with savoury dishes like jewelled couscous with dried fruit and cured beetroot with pickles and herring. Barbecued sticky ribs, venison with blackberries, and unctuous red wine sauces with rare beef, duck and game meats would also be great options to explore.
