An ecosystem of living and breathing elements, stretching over endless kilometers, evolves throughout thousands of years. Seascapes of turbulent white water, slowly sculpt the coastline, as shifting clouds drift through cobalt blue skies. Sands form patterns on tidal planes, as reefs anchor underwater worlds. Rock formations stand tall, like stone guardians to our homeland. Seasons guide us through time, forming a complex web of relationships. A connection that binds us all. The land is a link between aspects of our existence. Spiritual and cultural. One of language. One of family and identity. A premise that enters into your spirit, whilst listening to its heartbeat. Whether it’s the cultural significance of river mouths or the smell of the briny ocean air, it’s an energy that continues, infusing us into its ever-growing story. Simply slowing down to appreciate these gifts, allows one to listen to its whispers. This land and surroundings are a living museum of us and all our ancestors. This recipe gave birth to this project and Whisky & Water is my tribute to it.
