Bouilleur Eau De Vie Verveine (Verbena spirit) 40% 500ml
$113.00
Only the most interesting organic quality marcs of our region become the base for this delicacy, in France known as digestif liqueur. The purpose of the sugar is to balance out the verbena scent in the mouth. With the selected marcs already having a sweet taste, we don't need to resort to this procedure our Verveine is free of added sugar, making it unique. This we achieve by carbonic maceration of the white grapes, whereas the red ones are left to ferment in an airtight container. Our Verbena we obtain from organic producers in different spots nearby, between the sea and the mountains depending on the season. Right after the harvest, it is freshly extracted in the alcohol. Verbena and marc are traditional products. We combine them to make a modern vision of the spirit.

Bouilleur Fine de Muscat 5 years 45% 500ml
$119.00
Bouilleur Fine de Muscat 5 years - After a minimum of 5 years of maturation (this edition:13 years) in an oak barrel, distilled wine becomes the brandy of protected designation of origin, “La Fine Faugères”. Once famed as “France’s third brandy”, production had ceased some decades ago until it was resumed at the beginning of the new millennium. Today we are the only distillery producing this Fine for the winemakers of Faugères. Each year we chose one of their wines to make our own vintage barrel. Grape variety (Syrah, Grenache, Carignan, Mourvèdre, Cinsault), the schist terroir, distillation and the choice of the barrel are the elements that together create the characteristic notes of fruit, salt and a hint of tobacco leaves in the Fine Faugères. Its uniqueness lies in the velvety softness and length of its taste. We enjoy it with sweet dishes like Crêpes or almond cake, but it also accompanies perfectly a good stong black coffee – or the finish of your day. By the way: an expert on Napoleon told us that the inventary of the wine and spirits cellar of Napoleon’s first wife Josephine lists a “Fine Faugères”.

Nosferatu Blood Orange Gin 40.4% 700ml
$82.00
Inspired by a love of arthouse cinema, Nosferatu Blood Orange Gin takes it cues from the black and white cult classic, Nosferatu.
The Gin is lovingly distilled, under the cloak of darkness, in 'The Schreck', a coffin-shaped pot still (believe that if you will) in a dusty old South Melbourne cellar.
With its distinctive red hue, this Gin is delicate, yet packs a punch with botanicals such as Albanian juniper berries, blood orange peel, fresh navel oranges, dried orange peel, roasted fenugreek, coriander seeds, cardamom seeds, wormwood and angelica root.
A true cult classic. You know you want it.
As with all classics, treat it with respect. Fill a Copa de Balon with the best ice you can find, add a generous nip of Nosferatu Blood Orange Gin, top up with a quality tonic and finish off with a sliver of blood orange. Cheers.
A must try Melbourne made gin.
