HOME GROWN X ESPOLÒN TEQUILA
In 2023 the team at Campari approached us about creating an on-tap Margarita. Our goals were flavour and style without comprising speed of service. The result is our citrus-first Margarita, made with Espolòn’s blanco tequila, lime, triple sec and a twist of grapefruit. Served over ice for a refreshing take on the classic, it allows for both quality of product and high volume service.
HOME GROWN X CARETAKER'S COTTAGE
In 2021 Home Grown was launched with a range developed by our friends Rob, Matthew and Ryan who own and run Melbourne bar Caretaker's Cottage. The first spritzes where big on flavour and set the tone for how the brand developed.
