Saprock Granite Spirits

Story: Saprock Granite Spirits
Episode: 3
Presenter: Stuart Laws
Air Date: 29th September

Stuart experiences pure Beelu spirits, crafted from Australian grains and artesian water that’s filtered through ancient saprock granite in the Perth Hills.

  • Beelu Forest Distillery, established in 2021 at Lake Nenia in Mundaring, Perth Hills, produces handcrafted, premium small-batch spirits using pure artesian water.
  • The distillery is named after the Beelu people, the original inhabitants of the Perth Hills area, with "Beelu" meaning "river" or "stream" in Noongar language, and the distillery is committed to honouring the cultural heritage of Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
  • The distillery is located just 30 minutes from Perth's CBD, nestled by Lake Nenia, a scenic and often undiscovered location perfect for events such as corporate away days and hen's parties.
  • The distillery creates four products: Saprock Dry Gin, Saprock Vodka, Saprock Limoncello, and Saprock Black coffee liqueur.
  • The word "Saprock" refers to the granite layer through which the water flows, taking up to 12 months to filter, enhancing the spirit’s purity.
  • Saprock Dry Gin uses classic London Dry botanicals, resulting in a juniper-forward gin with notes of citrus, florals, liquorice, and peppery spices.
  • Saprock Black is a full-bodied coffee liqueur made with lightly roasted single-origin beans, blended with premium wheat spirit and saprock-filtered artesian water, offering caramel and berry fruit notes.
  • Saprock Vodka is made from wheat spirit and pure artesian water filtered through weathered granite (saprock), adding beneficial minerals for a smooth, velvety finish.
  • Saprock Limoncello involves hand-picking organic lemons, peeling them, and macerating the zest in high-proof alcohol for three months.
