Where traditional gin meets a middle eastern fling. Turkish Delight Gin isn’t your ordinary gin; it’s the life of the party, bringing the vibrant flavours of a Middle Eastern confection to the gin game. It’s the kind of gin that doesn’t follow the rules – it creates them!
Crafted in collaboration with The Smoking Camel, our summer sensation boasts a blend of rose and orange blossom, zesty Meyer lemon, and the delightful essence of white aspen, reminiscent of lemon cheesecake.
This signature gin/lovechild was developed with The Smoking Camel Team, for their signature ‘Turkish Delight’ martini style cocktail. “I am so excited to be collaborating with Eddie and the Brookie’s Gin team on this project. Eddie and I have been friends for a long time and having built businesses side by side in Byron it’s very cool to be able to do something together that combines both of our passions” – The Smoking Camel co-owner Kim Stephen.
The gin was created with the help of Eddie Brook’s mum, Pam Brook. She says Brookie’s Turkish Delight was made not from the flavours of commercial Turkish Delight, but from her memories of tastes and smells of exotic Turkish sweet shops in inner Melbourne.“Entering these stores as a child I was enveloped in the scents of rose and orange blossom, surrounded by luscious, sweet sticky pastries, aromas of roasted nuts and sticky honey sweetness,” remembers Brook.
It’s not just a drink – it’s a psychedelic taste adventure that’s gonna take your taste buds on a magic carpet ride! Pour it over rocks, mix it with your favourite tonic, soda, or try your hand at one of our Turkish Delight Cocktail recipes. Turkish Delight Gin isn’t just a gin – it’s a whole new world of flavour and fun.
The Smoking Camel x Brookie’s Turkish Delight Gin is exclusively available in The Smoking Camel, Light Years Asian Diner and Moonlight Japanese, And through the Cape Byron Distillery website
