Honey Gin is a special collaboration between forager-chef Analiese Gregory, her honey bees and Taylor & Smith Distilling Co. Each beeswax-lined bottle celebrates the essence of 561 500 blossoms—an ambrosia that captures the Tasmanian Spirit, with gentle sweetness from Analiese’s hives.
The special relationship between place and flavour defines Taylor & Smith. It is this same quality that Analiese Gregory celebrates in her cookbook How Wild Things Are and SBS show A Girl’s Guide To Hunting, Fishing and Wild Cooking. Tasmania’s wild island has long inspired her. From Michelin-starred restaurants to redefining farm-to-table living in her rustic Huon Valley farmhouse, Analiese looks to nature's pantry for her flavours.
TASTING NOTE
Waves of musk dance around the paperbark. Distinct florals leap out first before the bush honey brings reminders of the native plants the bees have visited, layers of myrtle and bottlebrush. The wax smooths, rounds, and offers up plenty of lush texture. It finishes with a decent hit of juniper to remind you it is very much a gin.
Honey Gin can be as easily be sipped alone, or slipped into endless cocktail variations.

HOW WILD THINGS ARE
Cooking, Fishing and Hunting at the Bottom of the World
by Analiese Gregory
How Wild Things Are celebrates nature and the slow-food life on the rugged and sometimes wild island of Tasmania. When chef Analiese Gregory relocated after years of cooking in some of the world’s best restaurants, she found a new rhythm to the days she spent cooking, fishing, foraging, hunting and discovering – a girl’s own adventure at the bottom of the world.
With more than 40 recipes, including ferments, interwoven with Analiese’s compelling story, and accompanied by stunning photography, How Wild Things Are is also a window into the joys of travel, freedom, vulnerability and the perennial search for meaning in what we do. This is a blueprint for how to live, as much as how to cook.
Analiese featured on National Geographic’s Uncharted (Disney Plus) as she guides renowned chef Gordon Ramsay on a unique culinary tour of Tasmania, and showcases her cooking and outdoor Tasmanian adventures on her own SBS series A Girl's Guide to Hunting, Fishing and Wild Cooking.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Kobi Ruzicka, friend, chef and owner of Dier Makr, has recommended some of his favourite ways to drink our Honey Gin.
GIN AND IT
2:1 is the key here, then the options are yours to explore. The title is a reference to the drinks make up, “It” standing for Italian, in this case the vermouth. Originally made with a sweet red vermouth and drunk at room temp, there’s many options to explore. It’s equally as enjoyable with white, stirred up or down.
60ml Honey Gin
30ml Sweet Vermouth
Stirred over ice, strained into a chilled coupe (or Nick and Nora if you prefer), garnished with a lemon twist.
BEES KNEES
Dating back to prohibition, originally honey and lemon was added to mask poorly made bathtub gin. But the drink is far greater than that.
60ml Honey Gin
25ml Fresh lemon juice
25ml Honey syrup (a mix of 2 parts honey 1 part water)
Combined in a cocktail shaker with a large cube of ice.
Shake vigorously until well chilled, quickly strain into a chilled coupette.
For a simple variation swap the lemon for lime juice and your “Bees Knees” becomes “The Business”
