Four Pillars Modern Australian Gin
This gin was originally an exclusive collaboration between Four Pillars Gin, QANTAS and the Rockpool Group.
Alongside some great native botanicals, Asian spices like Szechuan peppercorns gave it a lovely warm mouthfeel (a tiny bit like Neil Perry’s famous numbing duck dish from Spice Temple). Combined with local fruits and Australian macadamia nuts this gave us a gin with lots of softness and spice.
And then something not entirely unexpected happened. Everyone wanted in on this ‘secret’ gin they had seen in fancy restaurants and airport lounges.
We think of it as a modern Australian classic, strongly led on the nose and palate by lashings of juniper.
This traditional underpinning is supported by native lemon myrtle, quandong, macadamia nuts, fresh grapefruit peel, red and green Szechuan (because what would modern Australia be without Chinese flavours?) and fresh red apples.
The result is a bright and dry gin, made in a truly Australian way, and now available for everyone to share.

Four Pillars Gin is a modern Australian Gin. The team wanted to create gin that represented contemporary Australian, classic, approachable, spiced to perfection and lifted with great citrus. Each flavour is distilled together in a German made copper pot still called Wilma.
“Making gin anywhere would be exciting. But we don’t make gin anywhere. We make it here. In Australia. The most delicious, diverse and creative place on earth. And that’s why we get to combine intense creativity around gin with a huge passion for hospitality and gin-fuelled fun.”
As well as winning some of the most prestigious awards out there in their relatively short history, Four Pillars have shown themselves as true innovators within the category with their use of fresh, native Australian ingredients creating some of the most unique and exciting gins out there. They are lucky enough to have access to local native botanicals like lemon myrtle and Tassie pepper. And our signature is the use of whole fresh citrus in every gin.
They produce a range of spirits including these great gins.

FROM SMALL CRAFT DISTILLERY TO BEING NAMED WORLD’S LEADING GIN PRODUCER TWO YEARS IN A ROW. THIS IS A CRAZY RIDE FOUR PILLARS ARE ON
It all started back in 2013 with three mates and one extraordinary copper still. They called her Wilma (after Cameron’s beautiful late mother), and she has since been joined by Jude, Eileen, Beth and Coral. Six years later, in 2019, Four Pillars Gin was named the world’s leading gin producer by the IWSC in London. They won again in 2020, making Australia’s favourite gin officially the world’s best.
In 2015 They made their home in Healesville, Yarra Valley in what was once a timber yard. Four Pillars Distillery brings together everything under one roof. They make and experiment with gin on one side, while we serve up drinks and tastings on the other.
They are lucky enough to have access to local native botanicals like lemon myrtle and Tassie pepper. And their signature is the use of whole fresh citrus in every gin.
Officially now carbon neutral
The Adelaide Hills is one of Australia’s most charming wine regions and home to a large number of premium wine producers. The wine history of the area is similar to many other wine regions: industry developed after the first plantings in the 1840s, only to struggle for economic survival as consumer tastes changed with resurgence in the 1970s – most notably Brian Croser with Petaluma. Today it is very much a boutique vineyard and winery region that is pitching for quality and winning awards. This region has the coolest climate of all South Australian wine regions. Nestled in the Hills, its climate influenced by altitude (350m to 700m) and winds from the St Vincents Gulf. Main wine styles: White – Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling; Red – Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz.
