It’s the latest release from the budding cannabis industry, a premium hemp gin by Gippsland distillery, Natural Distilling Co.

Each bottle is made using limonene, one of the main organic compounds found in cannabis plants.

In Hemp Gin, the limonene adds an ultra-rich profile to the spirit, mingling alongside notes of juniper, mandarin and lime, and finishing with soft spice.

The Natural Distilling Co also makes hemp vodka, which instead focuses on the organic compound myrcene. A hemp rum is currently in production.

Hemp Gin can be ordered now with the first batch expected to arrive in November. Each 700ml bottle is priced at $96 from naturaldistillingco.com.au, or from Dan Murphys.
