Is it our botanicals, climate or willingness to give anything a crack, that’s helping Aussie craft spirits win awards worldwide? From the native botanicals on Kangaroo Island that happen to be a perfect addition to gin, to the realisation that the Tasmanian climate can age whisky quicker than in Scotland, to the farmer who revived his family farm by creating vodka from his sheep’s whey, this episode looks at the people putting a uniquely Aussie spin on whisky, vodka and gin and getting praised worldwide for their efforts.  Featuring: Bill Lark of Lark Distillery, Peter Belgrove of Belgrove Distillery, Ryan Hartshorn of Hartshorn Distillery, Sarah Lark of Kangaroo Island Spirits (KIS), Master distiller of Archie Rose Distilling Co.
