About the Australian Gin Awards

The Australian Gin Awards, run annually by the Australian Gin Distillers Association, are recognised for showcasing the finest gins across the region, based on blind tastings and expert evaluation. In 2025, a total of 230 medals were awarded across all categories: 86 Bronze, 107 Silver, and 36 Gold.

What makes Grain Original Dry Gin stand out

Our gin’s Gold Medal in the Classic Dry Gin category underscores its excellence in these key areas:

• Exceptional Balance & Craftsmanship: Carefully crafted to the traditional London Dry gin style, with a refined blend of botanicals that burst through the palate with elegance—traits cherished in classic gin evaluations.

• Elite Recognition: Achieving Gold places Bondi Liquor Co among the top tier of Australian gin producers, a testament to our dedication to quality and consistency.
