Juniper Berry
![Juniper Berries - Gin Botanicals](https://brightnight.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/gin-botanicals-juniper-berries.jpg)
An essential for any traditional gin, these small, dark blue berries come from the conifer family and create the piney, fragrant gin base. Our berries are grown and harvested in Serbia.
Coriander Seeds

Provide spice and citrus base notes. The dried seeds we use (in abundance) are imported from India.
Tasmanian mountain pepper berries

Sourced from the state’s central highlands provide heat and spice and are one of the hero ingredients. They were first used as a gin botanical in the 1990s.
Kunzea

Another native Tasmanian botanical. Fresh sprigs provide delicate aromatics of citrus, eucalyptus and honey. We grow our own.
Macademia Nut

Delivers the distinctly Australian citrus burst to the gin.

Green cardamom pods

Provide distinctive Asian spiciness and help to create the pops of flavour in our gin
Cassia Bark
![](https://brightnight.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/gin-botanicals-cassia-bark.jpg)
Lends notes of spicy sweetness with a touch of heat. Sometimes called Chinese Cinnamon, we call cassia bark a ‘warming’ botanical.
Angelica
![](https://brightnight.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/gin-botanicals-angelica-root.jpg)
We use the root of angelica (from Poland) which contributes to the sweet forest-floor of Bright Night.
Orris Root
![](https://brightnight.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/gin-botanicals-orris-root.jpg)
Provides an extra dusty layer and acts to bind other flavours. It comes from the iris flower, and we source it from Morocco.
Sarsaparilla root

Adds to the musty earthiness that defines the gin
Clove

Sparingly used, provides more pungent spice
