Hunter Distillery - Pokolbin

During a recent visit to Singleton we headed to Pokolbin to visit some of the outlets selling locally made products.  We arrived at the Hunter Distillery just before closing time but they were still happy to allow us to sample their unique range of spirits.  

This is an organic distillery which produces  Vodka, liqueur, schnapps and award winning Gin.  From the outside it looks just like a shed but don't let that deter you from going inside to try their great range of spirits.  

I particularly liked the Jail House Gin and purchased a bottle for my collection - this product incorporates lemon myrtle and Szechuan spice into the drink which gives it a really interesting flavour.

My other purchase was Ginger Liqueur.  We love Ginger and this has a lovely taste which apparently makes a refreshing drink when mixed with soda water and ice - just like ginger beer they said. It is made with Natural Ginger and we are saving this for a special occasion.

The staff are great and happy to explain the process.
