Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Spring Bay Distillery, 6 Hoods Rd, Spring Beach, Tasmania 7190 Australia

Visit the Spring Bay Distillery in Cambridge, not far out of Hobart. This is where it all happens, and the owners, Susanne and Cam are delighted to tell you their story before we embark on spirit tastings and distillery experience. Take a sneak peek and sample from one or two never released casks, or from the distiller’s favourite cask.
Spring Bay have a newly built Solera where you can bottle your very own 200ml bottle of cask strength Whisky.
You will sample their signature Gins and Vodkas along with several Whiskies and learn all about the art of distillation from their experienced distillers. We will have opportunities to sample the Wort, the liquid extracted from the Mash during the brewing process of Whisky.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Devil's distillery, 1 Gormanston Rd, Moonah TAS 7009, Australia

Hobart Whisky is not open to the public. This is a true behind the scenes experience where you will meet the distillers in person. John, Ben or Trevor will talk you through the repurposed old Egg Factory and how they make the “Water of Life” like no other. Using a Whisky Thief, be the first to draw samples from barrels that are upcoming releases, never before sampled by the public. Here you will see hundreds of barrels racked to the ceiling and you will have the opportunity to marry your own whisky from 5 single malt casks. Learn the fine art of distillation, get your hands dirty and sample Gins, Vodka, Whisky, Rum and Liqueurs. In the main distillation room, you can sample the new make direct from the still and even stir a mash.
Lunch will be served here in the Distillery Loft - Locally catered individual options for each tour.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Killara Distillery, 32 Ogilvie Lane, Richmond, Clarence, Tasmania 7025 Australia

One of the newest distilleries on the scene and owner, Kristy Lark is of local distiller heritage. Here you will meet and chat with Kristy and her distiller team. You will be greeted with a beautiful Lavender Gin or other fitting beverages to reflect the days weather. You will sample incredible Whiskies, Gins, and Liqueurs. Our favourite sample is exclusive to you, the "Infinity Barrel". Killara's original Whisky is in the barrel and every cask produced has a portion added to that barrel, never going below 1/3. This is a historical journey of Killara's Whisky from its establishment to today.

6 out of 5. This was a fantastic tour. Lee knew his subject, wasn’t fazed by idiot questions or opinions. This gentleman is an asset to the company. Lee talked on a wide & varied range of topics. Very knowledgeable of Bruny Island imparting a vast amount of information to all on board. The tour covered a wide range of Bruny Island giving an in-depth overview of this part of Tassie. We were very well looked after, morning tea, lunch & afternoon tea were all exceptional. Too much to say here of just how good we enjoyed this day out with a great guide. On an overcast day Lee even found us a White Wallaby to photograph, Dave didn’t for his group. 👍 (Liz enjoyed it too).

My husband and I along with some friends did this tour. From the outset, everything was well organised and professional, with a personal feel. The tour guide had a great rapport with all the distillery owners, along with a great knowledge himself of the distillery process. He also had a great sense of humour, many laughs were shared through the day. We were able to taste a wide range of spirits, from vodka, whisky, gin, liqueurs and more whisky. We were even able to do some tastings direct from an oak barrel using a syphon to gather our individual tastes. To be honest, I am not usually a spirits drinker, but a whole new appreciation started this day and we may have taken home more than one bottle! My personal favourite was a unique bush liqueur. I would recommend this tour for both a spirits lover and newbie alike.

I can't recommend this tour enough. It was a fabulous not too long of a day with friends. There's quite a few hidden gem quality distillery's in Tasmania and we got to see whiskey being made, tastings from the barrell, as well as liqueurs. Our hosts Craig and Dave were great fun and took interest in getting to know us as well. Value for money and jam packed yet there was time to take in Tassie's beauty. Bonus for me - I got a few Xmas presents ticked off along the way. Thanks guys and maybe we can do this again sometime.
