For the base of Hill Martin's No1 Rare Dry Gin, this father-and-daughter duo uses the highest purity alcohol available in Australia and a generous portion of juniper berries, sourced from Hungary. 
 
Founder-distillers Gavin and Amy Shaw also add coriander seeds, cassia sticks that are shredded into smaller portions, and finish off with finely cut locally grown lemon and anise myrtle. 
 
The resultant concentrated gin is very smooth with a taste akin to the more traditional gin products.As the Shaws say, it’s a simple recipe but one that hits the spot in terms of nose, palette and finish.
