Today was a national public holiday in Australia, so like all good Australians I... worked a full day for public holiday penalty rates. My drink choice was based around a couple of Aussie (Tasmanian, to be exact) favourites I could throw in! Originally found on instagram, thanks to @haywardgary. Sloe Pimm Fizz 22.5ml gin (I … Continue reading Ginuary 26th: Sloe Pimm Fizz.
Ginuary 12th: the Gibson @ Society Salamanca.
One of the best things about this Ginuary is the excuse to finally get to a couple of newer venues in my city of Hobart.

Society's … Continue reading Ginuary 12th: the Gibson @ Society Salamanca.

I spotted some amazing-looking plums on my one voyage out of the house this weekend and thus today's gin seemed fated. Sloe Roasted … Continue reading Ginuary 19th: Sloe Roasted Plums.
Ginuary 10th: Bespoke Tasmania Gin Workshop @ McHenry Distillery.
Today I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Turns out I was just on Bespoke Tasmania's Gin Workshop tour at McHenry Distillery. This is the first time I've added "gin event" to the category list, but it makes perfect sense to me for something like this to count as a different way to experience … Continue reading Ginuary 10th: Bespoke Tasmania Gin Workshop @ McHenry Distillery.
