‘Proudly producing Australia’s most highly awarded gin’ FEARLESS SPIRIT Never Never Distilling Co. is the story of us, three people with a passion for flavour, having a serious go at creating Australia’s most exciting and innovative spirit brand. It is the culmination of our separate journeys, three paths walked that have managed to intertwine here in South Australia. JUNIPER REVOLUTION Call us crazy, but we decided to make juniper (the main ingredient in gin) the core of everything we do. Never Never is here to start a Juniper Revolution, making juniper the hero of our bold, modern-classic gins. We distil their juniper in three ways using our triple juniper method, complimented by eight other botanicals including the distinctive Australian pepper berry. This creates rich and complex gins that make delicious gin and tonics or cocktails. FROM THE NEVER NEVER Our spirit of adventure is inspired by the Never Never – the vast Australian expanse beyond the horizon. To step in to the Never Never is to journey in to the unknown.

The launch of the Tucker’s Natural Gourmet Cracker range was developed from a shared philosophy of husband and wife team Sam and Cindy Tucker. When Sam met his wife Cindy in their 20’s, they both had a strong interest in health and wellbeing. Both were active sports people and wanted natural health positive products in their diet. So when the opportunity of developing a cracker that was GMO free, contained no artificial preservatives, flavours or colourings, was free from yeast, soy and MSG, and it looked like something the consumer market was asking for, they both jumped in. In 2007, the Tucker’s Natural Gourmet Cracker range was launched. Today, Sam Tucker leads the day to day team, whilst Cindy remains a support in the business but has her hands full with three blonde-haired active boys 7, 8 & 9. Tucker’s Natural is proud to be a family owned and operated Australian business. The philosophy of its beginnings remains the same today as it did when it was founded- Natural Snacking Everyday. Cheers – Sam Tucker

Yumbah’s story combines respect for Australia’s original inhabitants, the unique and pristine qualities of the Great Southern Ocean and investment in innovative, sustainable, scalable aquaculture systems to produce premium shellfish for a worldwide market. With the permission of the traditional custodians of the Yaygirr language we call ourselves Yumbah, meaning “larger shellfish”. From “pellet to plate”, we breed, grow and process Greenlip Abalone in our multiple sites situated on the shores if the Great Southern Ocean. The water of the Great Southern Ocean is renowned for its cold, clean and crystal-clear nature. These waters of unparalleled quality are the result of a natural phenomenon called the Bonney Upwelling, where deep ocean currents from the Antarctic Canyon carry nutrient rich waters north towards the southern coastline of Australia. It is this environment combined with Yumbah’s unique Greenlip abalone that allows us to provide consistent sashimi grade product with a sweet flavour, pearl white meat and a delicate texture.
