Australian spirit producer Four Pillars has marked its tenth anniversary with a special limited-edition release of its very first offering, Rare Dry Gin. This commemorative bottle, adorned in a design echoing the brand’s original color scheme, pays homage to the blend of Australian botanicals and oranges that defines the award-winning recipe.

“Ten years ago, in December 2013, we launched Four Pillars with one gin, our Rare Dry Gin,” the brand wrote.”It’s our original, our favourite (shh, don’t tell the other gins) and to us, simply the most delicious gin on the planet. So how better to celebrate our tenth birthday than with a limited-edition bottling of the gin that started it all?”

Amid the anniversary revelry, Four Pillars co-founder Matt Jones expressed his gratitude to his business partners, Cameron MacKenzie and Stuart Gregor, and acknowledged the collective efforts of everyone who has been instrumental in the brand’s success.

“Wow, so that’s what ten years feels like alongside two of the best humans, friends and business partners you could ever hope to meet,” Jones shared, according to Drinks Trade.

“Cheers to you, Cameron MacKenzie and Stuart Gregor, and cheers to the not-so-little gin business we created together, along with the most extraordinary collection of friends, partners, and supporters without whom we simply couldn’t have done any of this. Happy Birthday Four Pillars Gin and our whole gin family.”

Stockists of 10th Birthday Rare Dry Gin can be found on the Four Pillars website.

In October, Four Pillars earned the title of the world’s best gin producer. With its previous triumphs occurring in 2019 and 2020, Four Pillars now stands as the only gin producer across the globe to win this achievement three times.
