Red Okar, also referred to as Applewood Okar or simply “Okar,” is a celebration of Australia’s native botanicals; its bold flavor profile takes the classic aperitif to innovative new places while honoring tradition. With a deep ruby hue and a dazzling aromatic bouquet, the nose opens with native riberries, Davidson plum and detailed notes of citrusy peel, eucalypt aromatics, gentle baking spice depth, and subtle bitter herbs.

Tasting Notes

On the palate, Red Okar balances bitter-sweetness with an earthy complexity—imagine lush forest berries, vibrant blood orange, a tang of Tasmanian pepperberry, and impressions of grapefruit zest, all underpinned by a backbone of native barks and aromatic roots—a standout for crafting spritzes or negronis, or served simply over ice with a twist.
