Four Pillars' Three Peach Gin is a new, limited-edition launch inspired by brunch favorites like the Bellini and developed to stand out in cocktails. Described as the team's "gin of daytime dreams," this gin incorporates three types of peaches: quandong, yellow and white, as well as juniper, bourbon vanilla pods, roasted almonds, roasted wattle seed, strawberry gum, apples, finger limes and warming spices. Aromatically, the spirit is full of white stone fruit and white chocolate hints, plus touches of citrus and fruit for a crisp, well-rounded sweetness.
With daytime drinking occasions in mind, Four Pillars made Three Peach Gin a lower ABV of 37.8%, and it's said to work well in everything from a Peach Gin Spritz with mint to a Charlie Chaplin, a Peach Bellini, or a Highball with soda water.
