Gin Gifts Australia

Gin gifts in Australia are the perfect way to show someone you’re thinking about them. You can buy them for your friends if you'd like to introduce them to a new variety they haven't tried before. Or, you can buy a boxed set or bottle for someone in your family on their special day. You can even use them to show your employees that you appreciate what they do; they make great gifts for congratulating your employees on their accomplishments. Regardless of the reason you want to buy gin gifts, these well-crafted bottles from Lark Distillery are going to hit the spot. 

Gin originated in the 11th century when it was distilled by monks and alchemists in Europe. Initially, it was crafted as a medicinal liquid, and it was in the late 17th century that it was sold in commercial quantities. In the 21st century, gin has been making a resurgence of popularity as distillers' experiment by adding all different types of botanicals into the mixes. Modern popular styles include citrus, honey, and red wine. There are also a variety of gin festivals in many major cities to celebrate the new age of gin production. You'll often find the best gin is produced by passionate distillers who have an eye for what makes a perfect flavoured or classic style gin.

How to choose the best gin gifts?

When you're looking for quality gin gifts in Australia, then choosing some from a distiller with an excellent reputation is an excellent place to get started. Gin is made from distilling neutral grain alcohol with juniper berries and other botanical ingredients. The botanical elements are infused into the spirits, and this allows these flavours to shine. Distillers will often experiment with different flavours of gin to find something they feel is unique. By using fresh and local ingredients, you get a quality gin in a reasonably short amount of time. 

Ideally, it is best to give gin that you've tried and enjoyed the flavours. If you can't sample the gin yourself, then you can look for a gin that contains flavours you're familiar with. A good option is to choose a set that contains one or more bottles of gin. When buying gin gifts in Australia, you can look through the tasting notes provided by the distillery. In Australia, there is a large boutique distilling industry, and you find all sorts of gin available in a variety of flavours. The best gin uses local ingredients and will totally showcase everything the region has to offer.

At Lark Distilling Co, we have several gin gift sets that are ideal to be given to your family and friends. These sets contain two full-sized bottles of gin, and they'll delight and excite anyone who enjoys a high-quality gin.

Is gin supposed to be chilled?

As a general guide, gin should be served cold. If you don't have room in your fridge for storage, it can be placed in the freezer. If the ABV (alcohol by volume) is at least 37.5%, it won't freeze. Keeping gin as cold as possible will maximise the flavours and enhance your drinking experience. However, if you prefer to keep the gin in the pantry for storage, this will not affect it at all. Although the experts say you should keep and serve gin as cold as possible, it is not always feasible in many households. So, if you only have room in the pantry for your gin, then it'll be perfectly fine. 

Ideally, gin should not be served warm or at room temperature unless you're having a hot toddy. If you don't have adequate space in your fridge or freezer, then pouring the gin in a glass over ice will be sufficient to get it to the correct serving temperatures. Having gin cold is the best method for lowering the alcohol taste and enhancing the flavours inside. 

If you're drinking a flavoured gin, enhancing the flavour will showcase what the distiller intended. Lowering the temperature of gin reduces the apparent alcohol, which is especially good for anyone not familiar with the potency of gin or other spirits. With many Australian spirits, the high alcohol content can be a turn-off, so serving gin as cold as possible will help you to introduce these wonderful drinks to others.
