Established in 2015, Cam and Suzy Brett built Spring Bay after falling in love with the coastal region. Whiskies are matured in x Makers Mark bourbon barrels, x-port and x-sherry casks. Three huge rainwater tanks supply the distillery. Brett comments, "Today's rain is tomorrow's whisky. The salt is very important to us, it makes the rainwater sweet rather than salty." Production is set to hit around 4000 litres annually.

Notes from the distillery... Colour: Bright Gold. Nose: Immediate sweet notes of vanilla and crème brulee with fruity and herbaceous undertones. Palate: From a bright and sweet opening the flavours build across the palate to a rich, clean alcohol-driven crescendo culminating in a big, warm and comforting glow of spicy tannin hints and peach flesh. Finish: Long and warm with the afterglow fading into semi-sweet caramel and lingering stone-fruit tingles. 46% Alc./Vol.
