Never Never Distilling Co has launched a brand new Landers Lime Gin, the first gin since the distillery pivoted to producing vodka in 2024, and the first new product from the brand’s new distillery at Brisbane International Airport. The brand was acquired by Asahi Beverages that same year.

The expression revolves around the use of lime: finger, Tahitian, desert limes and Makrut lime leaf were all included in the condenser basket. The gin is also distilled with coconut cream for a ‘rounded, luxurious texture’, and fresh Queensland ginger for ‘bright, warming spice’. The rest of the recipe contains Never Never’s signature botanical backbone of Tasmanian pepperberry, juniper, coriander seed, angelica root, liquorice root and lemon peel.

Landers Lime Gin is recommended in serves such as sparkling Highballs, Frozen Lime Daiquiris, and a classic lemon, lime and bitters.

The gin is the first new spirit to be produced at Landers Pocket, an area that opened in November 2025 as a destination for travellers arriving in Brisbane from across Australia and beyond. The new grounds is shared by Never Never and 4 Pines Brewery (also Asahi-owned) boast a microdistillery, brewery, 800-capacity venue, beer garden, gastropub dining and several event spaces.

Never Never was founded by Sean Baxter, Tim Boast and George Georgiadis in 2016. Its original distillery is located in McLaren Vale, South Australia.

Landers Lime Gin comes in at 40% ABV, and has an MSRP of AU$80 (US$58).

Kanpai!
