Unico Zelo vignerons branch out into spirits

Adelaide Hills couple Brendan and Laura Carter have just released a couple of bitter orange liqueurs in the style of Aperol and the more bitter imported Campari, developed and distilled right here in Gumeracha under the name Applewood Distillery, the drinks called Okar and Red Okar for the stronger version. “We wanted to showcase Australian food and cultural tastes, and we realised we are well positioned here to create a unique beverage,” Brendan says.
