Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge | March 30, 2022
Head Chefs Unite for 2022 Season
Meet Mark Ota and Olivia Bolana, Clayoquots first duo of Executive Chefs headlining the dining experience.
At the soon-to-reopen Silky Oaks Lodge in the Daintree Rainforest, guests can try out at least three of the region’s top tipples:
A chilled ‘G&T’ is high on the hit-list at Uluru’s luxury basecamp Longitude 131° with top picks including:
Sundowners served at Capella Lodge with views to an oceanic horizon at Lord Howe Island are an ideal occasion to sample the island’s own Lord Howe Island Distilling Co. Wild Lemon and Hibiscus gin. Plans are at hand for the company to offer guests distillery tours and tastings.
At The Louise in the Barossa Valley, the most recent addition to the Baillie Lodges collection, there’s no shortage of local gin, but the signature House Gin & Tonic is made on Seppeltsfield Road Distillers House Gin. The distillery is located just 300 metres from the lodge and uses locally grown lavender to give the gin a beautiful floral depth. Talented local chefs make tonic syrups from natural, regional ingredients, and Varci Pink Peppercorn Tonic combined with carbonated rainwater and dried lime from the kitchen garden create the ultimate mixer.
Other top local picks include:
30ml Seppeltsfield Road Distillers House Gin
20ml Varci Pink Peppercorn Tonic
Soda Water
Add gin and tonic mix to glass
Half fill with ice
Top with soda water
Stir gently
Dried lime wheel
Cheers!
