Gin Never Never - Juniper Freak 2021

NEVER NEVER - Juniper Freak 2021

Juniper Freak is Australia's only vintage gin, celebrating the annual juniper harvest. A navy style gin that uses the freshest juniper from the Republic of North Macedonia.
It followed the same manufacturing process as the triple Juniper, it has the only difference of having a fresh juniper. It is a vintage gin to celebrate each harvest and thus, it will be a gin which will present more or less notable differences from one year to the next.
On the nose, concentrated juniper presents itself immediately, then gives way to notes of linden mingling with fresh pine needles.
Thick, oily palate, nice attack of juniper, peppermint.

🍸 A tasting gin that will appeal to whiskey lovers. Drink chilled, on ice or in classic cocktails. For the bravest, he makes delicious Dry Martini.

50cl - 58%

As with many good Australian stories, Never Never began over a pint in a pub. Tim, George & Sean are three friends passionate about flavors and know-how, who decided to pool their money to buy the last piece of the puzzle: a 300 liter hybrid pot and column still, which they named Wendy. They set it up at the back of a brewery on the outskirts of Adelaide in southwest Australia, and the adventure began.
Starting a small business is not for the faint-hearted, especially in the crowded market of the modern gin scene. But while they may have chosen to step into the unknown, it wasn't without the knowledge and passion to back them up.
The obsession with Tim for distilling and brewing is hereditary – a descendant of the Gilbey family of distillers in Scotland, he was tinkering with stills and fermenters in his garden long before he had a full-scale distillery to play with.
Experience George is in finance - but don't hold that against him. Always a whiz at science, he traveled the world in search of the skill of flavor production (including lessons in brewing and distilling). He was drawn to the world of flavors and he knew that when he made his own spirits, it would be in his hometown of Adelaide, inspired by the quality craftsmanship the region is known for.
Sean comes from a hospitality background as a career bartender and passionate cook (a Masterchef contestant, yes yes!). He is well-versed in the flavor manufacturing process and has extensive marketing and brand management expertise, which stems from his work as a national ambassador for a distributor.
Never Never has grown considerably since its creation and the very small space they occupied became far too narrow for the production demands. They have built their own distillery, in McLaren Vale, which has a bar where you can come and taste gins and oysters, with breathtaking views of Never Never Land.
What is Never Never Land? The vast expanse of the Australian outback stretching beyond the horizon, from which they got their name, but also their spirit of adventure.
