Dunalley Bay Distillery

Located on the breathtaking Tasman Peninsula, nestled along the shores of picturesque Dunalley Bay, the setting of Dunalley Bay Distillery adds a captivating dimension to the art of spirit-making.

The profound appreciation that owners Mark and Sandra Wray hold for the coastal locale, along with their keen understanding of the distinct characteristics found in their rainwater, local botanicals, and grains, further elevates the irresistible charm of Dunalley Bay Distillery.

Together, as a devoted husband and wife team, they have masterfully translated their mutual love for fine spirits into the flourishing success of their distillery. Mark's seasoned mastery as a distiller harmoniously blends with Sandra's creative and innovative vision, bestowing their products with an enchanting touch.

Their deliberate choice to age their spirits in American oak ex-bourbon barrels also serves as a heartfelt homage to the storied legacy of whiskey, rum, and gin production. This decision on wood showcases Mark and Sandra's reverence for tradition while also providing an expansive canvas for their imaginative explorations.

With each indulgent sip of their libations, one is transported to the very essence of Dunalley Bay.

I think their whisky is one of those boutique whisky that beat way above its weight. I think they produce only small quantity, so I am lucky to get a couple of bottles one to drink now, and one to keep for later (when others find out and price goes up) for the special occasion.

It is a nice place to relax after our port Arthur tour. It is an absolutely worth the stop, or even make a special trip to. Check out their interesting gin selections. I am not a real gin drinker, but the story and atmosphere makes an excellence experience, and the gin mixes we tried were delicious...
