How a Classic Distilling Secret Became the Backyard Gin Hero for Aussie Makers
Why the buzz around Still Spirits English Dry Gin Essence isn’t just hype — it’s history returning to form.
Picture this: It’s a crisp Saturday arvo. There’s cricket on in the background, a firepit warming things up, and someone hands you a glass of homemade gin that tastes smoother, brighter, and bolder than anything you could buy off the shelf.
What’s the magic in that glass? Odds are, it started with Still Spirits English Dry Gin Essence.
The Shortcut That Doesn’t Cut Corners
Gin, at its heart, is about balance. Juniper leads the charge, but it’s the supporting botanicals that decide whether you’ve got muddled chaos or a masterpiece.
Instead of hunting down coriander seeds or trying to measure citrus peel to the nearest smidge, this essence gives you a ready-to-go blend—time-honoured and tightly formulated. It’s everything you need to start strong, not scattered.
“Making gin at home used to be guesswork. Now it’s precision in a bottle.” – Candeece, Homebrew Specialist
The Still Spirits English Dry Gin Essence isn’t just a flavour booster. It’s packed with tradition—juniper berries, coriander, lemon peel, liquorice root—all pre-balanced so you can pour with confidence no matter your experience level.
Old-School Flavour Meets Modern Brewing Smarts
Time is precious, and let’s be honest—more of us want to make spirits, not study them endlessly. You want that sharp, piney snap of proper London dry without decoding a dozen herb ratios.
That’s where this essence bridges the old and the new. It channels decades of distilling know-how while making the process cleaner, quicker, and far less hit-or-miss. Whether you're infusing with neutral spirits or running a proper still setup, you're in full control of your end result.
Why It’s a Go-To for Shed Distillers and Serious Sippers Alike
- Consistency, batch after batch – It takes the guesswork out of repeatability
- No unnecessary additives – Just botanicals that deliver sharp, balanced flavour
- Great with mixers, neat, or in cocktails – Versatile doesn’t even cover it
- Distillation-ready – Works beautifully in both infusion and still-based methods
We’ve heard plenty of stories from makers who started with this gin essence and never looked back. It’s not about slapping together a backyard brew. It’s about perfecting a gin you’d proudly share with your mates over a smokehouse platter... and maybe brag about a little.
A Shed Classic with Character on Tap
If you’ve poured this essence into your setup, you’ll know—it hits the notes. That bold start from juniper. The warmth of spice. The citrus brightness that lifts it all. It finishes crisp, but not cold. Complex, without being complicated. It reminds you why gin matters.
If you haven’t tried it yet, well... let’s just say your next crowd-pleaser is sitting on our shelf.
The Real Upgrade? Time and Taste
Used to take half your Sunday sorting out ingredients, measuring spices, and crossing fingers. Now? 5 minutes and you're halfway to a stunning gin ready to bottle or walk straight into a Negroni.
That’s not cheating—it’s smart brewing with gear that delivers.
It’s Not Fancy. It’s Just Bloody Good.
No bells, no banners, no boutique brand guff. Just a proper gin essence that respects the craft and your time. The folks who love this stuff aren’t showing off—just quietly crafting better spirits, batch by batch.
That’s the real win: homemade gin that punches well above its weight, every single time.
Cheers to your next great bottle,
Candeece
