Tasting Journey
Twelve and a Half Acres presents Lemon Myrtle Gin, a tantalizing fusion of zesty citrus and exotic botanicals, guaranteed to delight lemon spirit enthusiasts. Crafted with the utmost care using a premium grape-based neutral spirit as its base, this gin embodies the perfect balance of vibrant flavours and botanical complexity.
At the heart of our Lemon Myrtle Gin lie the native Australian lemon myrtle leaves, sourced directly from Twelve and a Half Acres, renowned for their aromatic qualities and distinct lemony essence. This native botanical imparts a unique and refreshing twist, infusing the gin with a vibrant citrus character that is both invigorating and refreshing.
To further enhance the citrus profile, we carefully blend in lemon and orange peel, adding layers of brightness and tanginess to the mix. These citrus elements harmonize beautifully and dance on the palate, evoking a sun-drenched orchard in every sip.
But the journey doesn't stop there. We've added a touch of exotic allure to our Lemon Myrtle Gin with hints of cinnamon and dried cranberries. These carefully selected botanicals lend a subtle spiciness and a delightful twist, elevating the gin to a new level of complexity. The result is a truly captivating gin that entices the senses and leaves a lasting impression.
For those who crave the invigorating flavours of lemon spirits, our Lemon Myrtle Gin is a must-try. It embodies the essence of citrus in every sip, while the exotic undertones add a touch of intrigue and sophistication. Whether enjoyed neat over ice or as the star of your favourite cocktails, this gin is sure to transport you to a world of sunny citrus groves and exotic spice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is unique about your gins?
At Twelve and a Half Acres we hold true to the London Dry process for our Gins. We use premium grape based neutral spirit from South Australia. Only natural, and mainly organic, botanicals are added to flavour and sweeten the gin during the distillation process. Only pure filtered rainwater is added post distillation and no sweetener, or any additive is added. Read our blog about London Dry gin to learn more about the process we use and standards we adhere to.
What cocktails can I make with your gins?
We truly think the amount of cocktails you can make with our gin is only limited to your imagination and creativity.
What makes your gin different from others on the market?
What sets this gin apart from others on the market is its adherence to tradition. It's crafted using traditional methods and the finest natural ingredients available, including a premium grape-based spirit. This choice results in a clean, soft mouthfeel, which distinguishes it from gins made with grain-based spirits - think whisky. The gin does not contain any additional colouring, sweeteners, or flavourings, ensuring authenticity. It isn't modified post-distillation; it remains true to the London Dry process, embodying the pure product that emerges from the still.
How do you ensure the quality of your gins?
Firstly, we chose the finest ingredients – that’s essential. How can you produce high-end quality spirit using cheap inferior ingredients – the simple answer is you can’t. When distilling I make sure that only the premium flavours are collected during what is called the cuts of the distillation process. This ensures that the harsh flavours of the initial alcohol vapours to distil are not included in any of the Twelve and a Half Acre gins – in industry terms I cut deep making sure that only the spirit that makes the best drink is collected. From a process perspective we also use top industry standard equipment and have had my spirit professionally laboratory tested to absolutely confirm you are drinking the best possible spirit.
Do you provide delivery services for your products?
Yes, we offer various delivery options for our products. Firstly, we provide a free local delivery service for purchases made within a 15km radius of Montville, with deliveries taking place every Friday. Secondly, we cater to online orders across Australia via Australia Post, with either standard or express delivery options available.
