Strait

Strait’s first production run was in April 2006, making it the first of the new wave of gin distillers in the country. If you’re wondering why you’ve never heard of Strait, while you have (maybe) heard  names such as West Winds and Distillery Botanica, this is due to a quirk of fate at a time when gin distilling was at the start of its resurgence. By 2008 Strait were already exporting their product to China, Indonesia and Vietnam, when they were forced out of production due to the sale of their location and then the GFC.

Gins Include:  Dry, Cameo Tasmanian Beery,  and Sloe Gin

Natures elements help us create our products

We are a family based boutique distillery. Perched on the west coast of Tasmania we are battered by the roaring forties winds which travel from Patagonia south America more than 16000km away untouched by land until they reach us.

The winds deliver fresh air, sea mist and pure rain water from which we craft our whisky, gin and spirits. Production commenced in late 2019. Many years of sampling, collecting, research and practice have preceded this time.

Wild Mist Gin

Melding coastal and wilderness into a fresh
but complex spirit. Lemon myrtle, eucalyptus,
pepper berry and saltbush build on the juniper
base featuring our pure salt influenced rain water.
