Battery Point Distillery

Battery Point Distillery was born from a passion for Tasmania and the respected traditions of whisky distilling.

In Hobart’s historic Battery Point, where winding lanes of 19th-century cottages rise from the harbour, a small stone building contains a treasure trove of small-batch, hand-made whiskies slowly aging in a collection of carefully sourced casks. Vintage Spanish sherry, tawny, and port casks—as well as newer bourbon casks—all play their part in Battery Point Distillery’s vision. Whisky runs proudly in the blood of our pioneer distiller, Jack Lark.

Our creative and visionary use of cask and barrel influence drives extraordinary character into all Battery Point whiskies. Painstakingly double-distilled in tiny quantities from 100% Tasmanian malt mash and pure Tasmanian water, each whisky is completely unique from batch to batch. Luke Lawrence now takes the reins as head distiller, ably assisted by our blender, Louis Duckett in the Bond store and Chris Gardam helping with distillation and quality control, we are a small and passionate team. Variations and nuances of single, double or triple cask ageing come to life, allowing whisky lovers to experience exceptional contemporary expressions of Tasmania.

Nearby Attractions: A five-minute walk from Battery Point / Salamanca Market / Princes Park / Wharf Area / Restaurants. Lenna Heritage Hotel / Accommodation Onsite.

We had an amazing experience for a tasting at this distillery. Cameron was incredible as a guide and gave us an extensive overview of both the connected hotel and the gins and whiskeys on offer. It was very interesting seeing the process and our expectations in every respect were exceeded. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a place to test a great Tasmanian distillery.
