What about liqueurs made from native produce?

'cos I've got a VERY dandy Davidson Plum liqueur from the Mount Uncle distillery in the Atherton Tablelands near Cairns, and damn tasty it is too ...

Hi!

That sounds delicious. At Tukka Restaurant, we actually have a series of native liqueurs produced by John and Mary King in Maleny, QLD. We have anisata, wattle nectar, strawberry tea tree, lemon eucalypt, riberry and sandpaper fig among others. They are so yummy as a finish to a meal at dessert time!

I look forward to trying some davidson's plum liqueur.

Seems all the fun things are in Maleny, Qld!!! There are a few places in Qld that do native berry alcoholic things; I really must get a few.

The Davidson's Plum liqueur was astonishingly expensive, but wonderfully tasty. It would be gorgeous mixed with some plain soda or mineral water as an appetiser; it's tangy and strong and sweet.

Ummm yes unfortunate history. See www.murderingpointwinery.com.au The blackberry port is nice. Daniel I think you have a particular favourite? Apparently the black sapote port, I think it's black sapote, is good. Tukka did a tasting featuring these Queensland fruit wines, to be published in Taste Queensland, along with a lot of other articles about Queensland food producers/growers.

Yes, indeed that port was lovely but strange! Not unlike the history of its wine region, apparently.

That port ended up in our family's sangria for Christmas. It was great.

You can also find a great range of native liquors and vodka's at

They have a great flavour and hold a consistant range of products at a resonable price.
