Our Story.
Spring Bay Distillery’s approach to making single malt whisky began in 2015 when Cam and Suzy Brett realised their dream of building a distillery on Tasmania's east coast. Having shared a love of whisky for over 20 years, they dedicated many years to planning and dreaming before finally establishing the distillery. Their commitment to quality ensures that every part of the process meets the highest standards.
The use of premium Tasmanian barley, the quality of the wash, the distilling, the careful selection of casks, and, importantly, the use of arguably the best water in the world – a blend of East Coast Tasmanian sweet rainwater and the soft sea air of Spring Bay – all contribute to the exceptional quality of their whisky.
The influence of Spring Bay’s terroir is evident in the water used at the distillery, located less than 500 meters from the sea. Most afternoons, sea mist drifts up the valley and falls on the roof of the distillery, later collected when the rain falls. This sea salt imparts a unique profile to the water, which is both soft and sweet, enhancing the distinctive character of their whisky.
Coastal Crafted Spirits
Spirits Softened by the Sea
At Spring Bay Distillery, we embrace the unique terroir of Tasmania’s east coast, infusing every drop of our spirits with a sense of place that’s distinctly Tasmanian. The journey begins with the purest rainwater, filtered through the pristine coastal air at Spring Beach.
The rain, softened by sea mists that roll in from the coast each afternoon, carries a delicate balance of freshness and sweetness—perfect for tempering our spirit to its ideal bottling strength.
