About this deal

If you’re a gin lover too, you’ll be delighted to hear that Australia’s favourite independent gin maker, Four Pillars Gin , has released a range of non-alcoholic gin . Four Pillars takes their gin seriously, in fact, they take their gin so seriously that they don’t make anything else. So when they set out to create a non-alcoholic gin , they knew it would have to live up to their reputation. Some non-alcoholic spirits fall short in terms of heat and mouthfeel, elements that are difficult to create without the use of alcohol. Four Pillars have used some clever ingredients to overcome this challenge. Stuart Gregor, co-founder of Four Pillars, said: “Taking our Bloody Shiraz Gin to the drinkers of Britain is a lot like selling coals to Newcastle, just a lot more fun. The world of gin and distilleries like ours is indebted to the couple of centuries of great gin-making in the UK; without you, there is no us. Bandwagon Dry has been modelled on Four Pillars’ original, Rare Dry Gin, which has become something of a benchmark for modern, citrus-forward gins with a combination of Middle Eastern, Asian and local Australian botanicals. Bandwagon Dry follows the same path but without alcohol. Pour 45-60ml of Bloody Bandwagon over ice and top with 100ml of your favourite tonic. Garnish with a slice of fresh lemon.

Maybe you’ve found yourself wondering how gin is made, well this daring gin experiment features locally sourced cool climate Shiraz grapes soaked in our Rare Dry Gin and it has rapidly attained a devoted following, striking the perfect harmony between delectable fruitiness and the unmistakable essence of gin.

Bloody Shiraz Gin & Tonic

This non-alcoholic gin features aromas of orange and lemon myrtle, along with notes of spice on the palate. You’ll also notice some warmth that comes from a heavier load of botanicals. Cherry bitters - any kind of citrus flavored bitters, or Peychaud's bitters, would also work well in this. Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin combined with Yarra Valley Shiraz grapes? Bloody brilliant. This experiment using local cool climate Shiraz has become a cult favourite, perfectly balancing sweet fruit and ginny goodness. Although Bandwagon Dry is made with exactly the same botanicals as Rare Dry Gin (including juniper, oranges, lemon myrtle and pepperberry), each one is distilled separately so the flavour and quality can be controlled before they’re mixed together.

Pour 45-60ml of Bandwagon Dry over ice and top with 100ml of your favourite tonic. Garnish with a slice of fresh orange. In need of some positivity?

The key ingredient in Bloody Shiraz Gin is fermented Shiraz grapes, which contain alcohol, so Four Pillars had to find a different way to inject the Shiraz flavour and colour. They did this by using pressed Shiraz grape juice, made from cool-climate Victorian Shiraz grapes. The result is a convincing alcohol-free version of the cult favourite. Bandwagon Dry Bloody Bandwagon is based on Four Pillars’ Bloody Shiraz Gin. The original was created when Four Pillars came into a 250-kilogram load of Shiraz grapes from the Yarra Valley. The experiment paid off, with Bloody Shiraz Gin now considered a cult favourite. Like Bloody Shiraz Gin, Bloody Bandwagon perfectly balances sweet fruit and all the gin flavours.
