Elderflower

A$60.00

Every elderflower variety has a unique aroma and it took us over a year to find, finesse, balance and bottle our ideal bouquet. The outcome? A pourable posy of florals, citrus, sweet honeyed-apricot and crisp green grapes. With a clean, off-dry Riesling and brioche finish, Marionette Elderflower is distinct yet delicate and remarkably versatile.

Riding high on the cocktail coattails of the Italian spritz trend, elderflower’s refreshing but sophisticated character is making a real mark in the modern drinks landscape. The Hugo Spritz (elderflower liqueur, prosecco, soda, mint and lime), for example, has recently emerged as an elegant, lower-alcohol alternative to its Aperol-led cousin, and elderflower’s compatibility with cucumber and mint has made it a go-to twist for the ever-popular Eastside. It’s fast-becoming a foundational flavour on menus across the world as cocktail culture evolves and consumers seek fresher flavours and lighter options.

Yarra Ranges Blossom

Nothing about this liqueur happened by accident. It was a meticulous, year-long process that saw us spend almost as much time scouring the Australian countryside for the right varieties for elderflower as we did developing the product. Carefully tended blooms from Victoria’s Yarra Ranges form its fragrant foundation, select purple elderflowers add aromatic depth, and a precise blend of orange, lime and lemon blossoms enhance its floral notes. Our production team works together to take the produce to its full potential — pulling as much of its natural flavour as possible before layering, tinkering and turning it into a liqueur that sits at the sweet spot between classic and contemporary. With both Head Distiller Hugh Leech’s masterful precision and the internationally-awarded palate of Nick Tesar at play, Marionette Elderflower perfectly captures the essence of its core ingredient, earning it an essential place in the modern cocktail market.
