Lizard Island Gin Tasting Masterclass
Award-winning Wolf Lane Tropical Gin features botanicals sourced from the region’s Atherton Tablelands along with tropical fruit flavours like grapefruit, lime and mango, and is best served over ice with soda and a garnish of grapefruit.
Wolf Lane gin flight tastings are a popular sunset pastime at the Driftwood Bar and feature three of the distillery’s spirits, Tropical Gin, Navy Strength Gin and Davidson Plum Gin.
Sam Kennis who co-owns Wolf Lane Distillery in Cairns said the small batch distilled Tropical Gin was crafted in partnership with the food and beverage team at Lizard Island with the idea of creating a tropical style gin that was refreshing and unique to Tropical North Queensland.
Lizard Island Resort guests have the opportunity to participate in a Gin Tasting Masterclass during their stay and take home their very own bottle of signature Lizard Island gin.

ABOUT YARRA VALLEY CAVIAR
Yarra Valley Caviar is a boutique fresh water aquaculture farm located at the base of the Rubicon River in the Yarra Valley region of rural Victoria. Not only is Yarra Valley Caviar Australia’s only producer of fresh water Atlantic Salmon, it pioneers a natural approach to rearing and roe extraction, demonstrating a staunch belief in humane practices. In addition to Salmon, Yarra Valley Caviar also produces and harvests Rainbow Trout and Brook Trout roe for their caviar range.
The fish are milked for roe entirely by hand, once per year, under a completely natural anaesthetic of clove oil, and are then gently placed back in their ponds to spawn again the following year. Yarra Valleys Caviar’s products are packaged on site, without the use of any additives. The result is a superb quality roe salted with premium salt to produce bright, plump and flawless caviar – bursting with flavour. The award winning products are then shipped all over the world, including to Lizard Island.

Hemingway’s Brewery is a local, independent craft brewery operating in Far North Queensland that produces outstanding craft beers.
Introducing: Lizard Lager
Created in partnership with Hemingway’s Brewery, Lizard Lager features a distinctive lizard motif on its 375ml branded can and is already chilling in guests’ in-suite bars. It’s also available on tap at the resort’s breezy Driftwood Bar. Lizard Lager uses 100 per cent pale Australian malt for an uncomplicated sweet, hay-like character along with traditional German hops for subtle spice, fine bitterness and refreshing citrus flavours.
The idea for Lizard Lager came about from two beer lovers enjoying a couple of quiet ones at sunset and talking about creating the perfect brew that reflects the island. This is a fabulous example of two local companies working together and supporting each other – as well as creating something truly unique and memorable for everyone to enjoy.
