The Power of Nature
Nature has a way of providing the perfect ingredients for us to create amazing craft spirits. We use botanical ingredients in the production of our spirits. These ingredients offer a unique and distinct flavour profile. The power of nature truly shines through in every bottle we produce.

Now, imagine being able to learn about each of those botanicals through an interactive, self-guided tour that includes QR codes with audio narration for each plant. This is exactly what you can expect from a visit to the Botanical Gin Garden at Wilderer Estate. Guests can learn about each botanical while admiring the beauty of the garden. It’s an experience that is both educational and enjoyable.
