Historie

Geographe Distillery is located at Old Coast Rd Brewery in Western Australia’s beautiful southwest region. Since its establishment in 2008 they have quietly perfected the craft behind premium spirits and liqueurs. A philosophical approach to distillation and a love of beer and wine lead to experiments in quiet rooms and in small casks, where the aim is to highlight the good qualities and remove the less good ones.

Produktion/Fremstilling

Distilling is described as a slow, philosophical, and quiet occupation – focusing on the original product and highlighting the right notes while the wrong ones are removed. The final whisky comes after several years of resting in 'good' casks. Geographe focuses on bringing the good elements into focus and reduces the amount to increase strength and character.

Filosofi

Distillation is described as something that gives time to think – a balance between power and finesse. What cannot be preserved is removed, and with solid cask aging the whisky expresses itself over the years.
