Join us in the Loft this weekend to try this unique gin! Iron Balls Gin is meticulously crafted at A.R. Sutton & Co. Engineers micro-distillery in the heart of Bangkok by master distiller and Fremantle local Ash Sutton. This gin is handmade from fermentation to distillation using freshly cracked coconuts and pineapple with hints of juniper, hillside ginger and lemongrass. Due to the small size of the distillery, production is extremely limited. Pop up to the Wine Loft this weekend to have a taste of this perfect summer gin!

Over 95% of wasabi served in sushi restaurants does not contain any real wasabi. Most fake wasabi is made from a blend of horseradish, mustard flour, cornstarch and green food colorant. This means that most people who think they know wasabi have actually never tasted the real thing! Now you can make your own! Often called the ‘root’ of wasabi, these fresh stems produce a powerfully hot, sweet and fragrant fresh wasabi paste whilst the glossy, deep-green, heart-shaped leaves are a tasty and versatile product. Their mild wasabi taste is great in salads. They work beautifully to dress up a plate and team perfectly with salmon for canapés!
