This Australian Gin Was Voted The Best In The World

We’ll drink to that! - by Chelsea Tromans

This Australian Gin Was Voted The Best In The World

If you’re a gin drinker (who isn’t these days?!), then we don’t need to introduce you to Four Pillars as we’re sure you’re well acquainted with the Australian gin already. But what you might not know is that your favourite tipple is now also the world’s favourite gin. Yep, Four Pillars was just crowned the 2019 International Gin Producer of the Year in London during the International Wine & Spirit Competition.

The Yarra Valley-based gin distillery is the first Australian producer to be awarded the prestigious title, which has been likened to the Oscars of the alcohol industry.

“Never in our wildest dreams did we think while we were making test batches back in 2013 that just shy of six years old we'd be claiming this title on the world stage!” wrote Four Pillars on their Instagram.

FOUR PILLARS GIN IS THE IWSC 2019 INTERNATIONAL GIN PRODUCER OF THE YEAR! Never in our wildest dreams did we think while we were making test batches back in 2013 that just shy of six years old we'd be claiming this title on the world stage! This award is a tribute to every single person who has helped us make, sell, drink and buy our gins. It's an award for our entire business, and every member of our growing gin family here in beautiful Healesville. Cam and Joe are celebrating in London, and we're having it large here! Join us for FREE tastings at the distillery all weekend, enjoy FREE SHIPPING from our website using the code DRINK BETTER GIN, and with every 700mL bottle purchased from our MYER pop-up gin stores you'll get a free bar of our Rare Dry Gin Chocolate. Get around it, celebrate, go large folks. What a bloody awesome day!! #FourPillarsGin #DrinkBetterGin #IWSC #Healesville #YarraValley #gin #distillery

"The award is not for a single one of our gins but for the whole of our gin business and that's what makes it so incredibly special," Four Pillars distiller and co-founder Cameron Mackenzie told Good Food.

"The previous two winners of this award are Herno from Sweden in 2017 and Kyoto Distillery in Japan last year, so we couldn't be in better company. They are two of the greatest distilleries and two of our best mates in the world of gin."

Never tried Four Pillars before? If you’re into your flavoured gins right now, you have to try their Spiced Negroni Gin.

We're unashamedly obsessed with #Negronis. And few out there will disagree that this legendary #cocktail deserved its own purpose-made #gin. Highly aromatic, rich and intense, our #SpicedNegroniGin is distilled with West African spice Grains of Paradise and Indonesian cubeb - making it powerful enough to sing through your Campari and sweet vermouth of choice. Hey, if you're gonna do it, do it right... #FourPillarsGin #DrinkBetterGin #YarraValley #distillery #cocktails #Campari

Or if you’re feeling festive, their limited edition bottle of Bloody Shiraz Gin 2019 will make any gin lover all kinds of merry this Christmas.

The original, and still our favourite years later. Honestly, nothing rules our hearts the way Wilma's first born Rare Dry Gin does. Hope your weekend involves a splash or two gin peeps! #FourPillarsGin #DrinkBetterGin #RareDryGin #gin #distillery #Healesville #YarraValley #gandt #ginandtonic
