classic rakija
Sourced from vines that are 22 years old, planted on deep granite soils. They are low yielding but we don’t mind - it means the flavour of the grapes are more intense and concentrated.
Vintage 2021 presented some challenges with intermittent and unusual summer rains but then the sunny dry autumn kicked in bringing ideal ripening conditions. The shiraz grapes ripened slowly and were picked four weeks later than they typically would be, resulting in an intense flavour with spicy, ripe plum and light peppery aromas, classic notes from a deceptively good vintage.
These notes translate to an equally flavoursome Classic Rakija that is crisp, fresh and delicate on the palate.

gold rakija
Deep soils and low-hanging vines make for rich, flavourful Shiraz grapes — the perfect base for our Gold Rakija.
The Shiraz grapes used in this batch were slowly ripened throughout the 2021 season, allowing the fruit to develop depth, concentration and character. With intense notes of spice, ripe plum and peppery aromas, the grapes bring a bold warmth to the spirit before distillation even begins.
Once fermented and double-distilled, they produce a Gold Rakija that is full-bodied and layered, with a smooth mouthfeel and a subtle sweet undertone. Rich, rounded and quietly powerful, it is made to be sipped slowly and shared generously.

pear rakija
Sourced from an award-winning, family-owned orchard first planted in 1957 by Italian immigrants and still cared for by the same family today. Nothing but the best pears were selected for our Pear Rakija.
The growing season in South Australia was ideal for this batch, producing pears that were juicy, delicate, crisp and naturally sweet. Once harvested, the pears were juiced and fermented before being double-distilled into a beautifully fruit-forward spirit.
The result is a Pear Rakija that is bright, crisp and aromatic, with a gentle sweetness and clean finish. Delicate yet full of character, it is made to be sipped slowly and enjoyed generously.
