Gin – The taste of Australia 20 year anniversary special edition

4 Apr 2024 5:57 PM | Anonymous member (Administrator)

2024 marks the 20-year Anniversary of the Australian Distillers Association.

A highlight of the 2022 Annual Conference was the collaborative blend to commemorate the 30 year anniversary of Bill and Lyn Lark having a license to operate a craft distillery, marking the modern renaissance of distilling in Australia.

All participants at the conference were able to share in a toast to commemorate the 30 anniversary of Lark license and received a commemorative bottle of the collaborative blend. The liquid was supplied by 36 Australian whisky makers and they were acknowledged for their contribution.

The 2024 Annual Conference provides the opportunity to celebrate our 20-year anniversary in a special way.
