BASK eau de vie is the latest creation by Feels Botanical, an award-winning distillery in the Adelaide Hills, showing off the moody meeting of native Australian quandong, Kakadu plum and hemp. An eau de vie is a colourless fruit brandy, and in this case, it’s grapes that form the base of the spirit. BASK drinks like the smoothest of tequilas, and is best served over ice and topped with Mediterranean tonic water and a wedge of lemon. Order yours for $78 here.
