Geographe Distillery (Bellweather)

Established in 2008 in the tiny rural town of Myalup, Western Australia, about 1.5 hours south of Perth. Owner Steve Ryan started in winemaking, moved to brewing beer (Old Coast Rd. Brewery), then arrived at distilling, especially whisky. First release bottled late 2015 under the Bellweather brand. Produces peated single malt whisky from Scottish malted barley aged in French oak port casks. Releases are made sporadically in tiny quantities -- the largest batch so far (Release 4) was 300 x 350ml bottles. Highly sought after but rarely found outside Western Australia due to extremely limited production. Part of the Old Coast Rd. Brewery operation. One of the earliest whisky producers in WA alongside Limeburners.
