About

Founded in 2011 by Bill McHenry, Australia's southernmost distillery, located on a 100-acre property 10 minutes past historic Port Arthur. Bill brought a background in chemistry, agricultural science, and pharmaceutical company leadership. Three Tasmanian-built copper pot stills: 3,000L, 1,500L, and a 500L jacketed still (Knapp-Lewer design) for even heating. First single malt released 2016. The climate near Port Arthur closely mirrors Scottish conditions with high humidity and cool temperatures, causing whisky to lose more alcohol during maturation than other Tasmanian whiskies, producing delicate complex spirits.
