The trend to cut or quit alcohol is growing in popularity and small distillers are experimenting with styles and flavour to meet demand.

Demand for zero alcohol and low alcohol spirits is growingNo-alcohol spirits would not attract excise tax

Low and no-alcohol beer and wine have been around for a long time, but spirits options have been rare until the UK company Seedlip launched the world's first distilled non-alcoholic spirits in 2015. Last year the startup cashed in when the alcohol giant Diageo, which owns Johnnie Walker, Smirnoff, Baileys, Tanqueray and Guinness, bought a majority share.After seeing Seedlip's huge success, Rockhampton gin and rum distillers Catie and Warren Brewer, of Saleyards Distillery, developed Australia's first range of three zero-proof clear spirits.It comes in three varieties: Seed, Sprout and Stem.

Ms Brewer said Seed was like an Australian native kind of"inspired lavender rosemary smell of your nanna's backyard with lemon myrtle". "Sprout is very Middle Eastern — inspired by the whole spice trail with cardamom, cinnamon, rose and grapefruit, and Stem is Asian-inspired with lemongrass, mint and kaffir lime leaf," Ms Brewer said.

IT'S NOT SPIRITS IF IT HAS NO ALCHOL. Maybe cordial or non alcoholic aperitif. Use a dictionary or get an editor ABC.

Sophistication!! more like gullible wankers, just put this in the same bin as meatless burgers and almond milk.

Sorry but gin already tastes like distilled compost. Remove the after glow and there is nothing enticing in it at all. Just my opinion of course
