Made here in Australia
Make your own premium spirits & liqueurs.
Our flavour essences turn a bottle of neutral spirit into gin, whisky, rum or liqueur you’d be proud to pour. Leave it a couple of weeks and the flavour settles into something smooth and full.

How it works
Add one essence to a neutral spirit.
Mixed in a few minutes, then left to mature in the bottle for a couple of weeks. A fraction of the shelf price.
Start with
A neutral spirit
Vodka or a plain base spirit you buy legally.
Add
One Edwards essence
A 50 ml bottle makes 3.5 L of spirit.
Pour
Your own premium spirit
Bar-quality, made at home.
Not drinking? The same essences flavour mocktails, desserts and Christmas puddings.
Made responsibly. Distilling spirits at home is illegal in Australia without a licence. Edwards Essences are ready-to-use flavourings for distilled spirits, so no still is needed. Products are flavouring essences for adults 18+; please enjoy responsibly.
