Award-winning 23rd Street Distillery has unveiled its latest creation, a gin that’s practically summer in a glass. The Raspberry & Finger Lime Gin is a vibrant, flavour-forward spirit designed to hit the sweet spot for today’s gin enthusiasts.
Brand Manager Sarah Camerlengo explains the inspiration behind this new release, saying “We wanted to create a gin that truly reflects the evolving tastes of modern drinkers.”
“Our Raspberry & Finger Lime Gin offers a refreshing, elevated experience perfect for any occasion—whether it’s a casual afternoon with soda or tonic, or as the hero in a cocktail.”
The gin-making process is a careful balancing act of boldness and subtlety. Head Distiller Paul Burnett tells us, “The raspberries and finger limes sourced for this gin brought out the best of Australia’s natural flavours,” which is a highlight, with the gin’s vivid, refreshing taste celebrating local ingredients.
The result is a gin that’s bursting with the natural sweetness of raspberries, balanced by the tangy zest of finger limes. A hint of elderflower adds a delicate floral touch, while the juniper backbone keeps things grounded with a subtle piney spice. The tasting notes reveal a rich palette where raspberry layers are complemented by vibrant acidity. The zest of finger lime and subtle sweetness of elderflower add depth and character, creating a fruit-forward palate. The finish is smooth with a hint of juniper pine-spice, balancing the bold fruits and zest.
But it’s not just about the taste – this gin is a celebration of local craftsmanship. The raspberries and finger limes are sourced from Australia’s prime citrus-growing regions, ensuring the freshest, most vibrant flavours. Even the bottle label is a work of art, designed by Australian artist Rebecca Mills to capture the spirit’s unique character and local ingredients.
So, whether you’re a seasoned gin lover or just dipping your toes into the world of craft spirits, 23rd Street Distillery’s Raspberry & Finger Lime Gin is a delicious taste of Australian summer, bottled and ready to enjoy. Available in a 700mL bottle with a 37% ABV, the Raspberry & Finger Lime Gin can be found at select retailers across Australia. For those preferring online shopping, it is also available for nationwide delivery via Sippify.
This release is part of 23rd Street Distillery’s broader offering, which includes premium gin, whisky, vodka, brandy, ouzo, rum, and ready-to-drink cocktails.
