There's a light wind outside, perfect to set sail and explore some Damn Fine Gin from the West of Australia.

Our story

-

The secret to The West Winds story is buried within our name. The wind and the waves are at the heart of everything we do, because we honour the ocean breezes that brought sailors and explorers across the Indian Ocean to the West Coast of Australia.

Our journey set sail in 2010, when we threw caution to the winds and embarked to create a range of gins to rival the best in the world. Our first gins, The Cutlass and The Sabre and more recently, The Broadside, have all been awarded Australia’s Champion Gin while the Cutlass and The Broadside have also been proclaimed Champion Gin in international competitions.

West Winds also releases limited edition products. Sign up for our newsletter to be among the first to know when we launch our next limited release gin.

Our Gins

Our goal is to make gins that we love to drink and to share them with the world. Our gins are acclaimed both in Australia and internationally.

We are passionate about gin and about exploring the best ways to make our gins as accessible as possible. Over 50% of the botanicals used in The West Winds Gins are indigenous to Australia. Combine these with more traditional botanicals and ingredients, like locally grown fresh lemon, lime and fresh coriander, and you have gins that are among the finest in the world.

The
Cutlass

50% alc/vol.
-

The Cutlass is our rare find. As our New World Gin, its special blend combines traditional Juniper with some unique Australian treasures such as Cinnamon Myrtle and Native Bush Tomato. Enjoy your bounty and take this secret to your grave.

The Cutlass is a gin for seasoned adventurers who are familiar with the wild intricacies and vast possibilities of finely crafted gin.

MAN FRIDAY

This is a twist on the classic ‘Negroni’ from Founder Jason Chan — it really highlights the vegetal aspects of The Cutlass.

Note that The Cutlass also makes an amazing G&T with a thin slice of green capsicum as a garnish!

The
Broadside

58% alc/vol.
-

We present you the boldest of our fleet,
The Broadside – our Navy Strength Gin, made to honour the most brazen, aggressive and fearless of naval war tactics. Its firepower comes from the delicious Sea Parsley seasoned with Margaret River sea salt.

Back in the day, gin was often stored below deck with the gunpowder and we know that when all guns are blazing, it’s hard not to spill some here and there. So, we crafted The Broadside at 58% to keep our crew’s spirits up, and even if a little is spilled on our gunpowder, our guns will still fire.

Dirty Martini

The stiffest of drinks for the saltiest of dogs.

Note that the Broadside also makes an amazing G&T with a slice of pink grapefruit as a garnish!

The
Sabre

40% alc/vol.
-

The Sabre is our weapon of choice to conquer new flavours and pleasures. Our style of London Dry Gin is a citrus collision combining native Australian botanicals, like the exotic Lemon Myrtle and Wattleseed, to perfectly blend with Juniper.

The Sabre is the perfect gin for explorers looking for a new world appreciation of finely crafted gin.

G&T

You can’t sail past a classic G&T. The Sabre tastes scurvalicious with a zesty slice of lemon to garnish.
