Heidi is an extremely passionate and knowledgeable distiller. Generous tastings of the whole collection were on offer, including gin, whisky and other spirits. Free postage available for bulk purchases for those worries about luggage limits. The ruby grapefruit spirit was the stand out for me!

A wonderful gin tasting with the owner / operator. Not a surprise that they have won several Best In Australia awards! And they have beautiful local honey from the many hives in the surrounding paddocks as you enter. Beautiful experience and beautiful business!

We were visiting the island and looking for things to do when Heidi's distillery caught my eye.  We went by one afternoon and Heidi gave us a brief history of her distillery and a tasting of her offerings. You can tell Heidi puts a lot of love, care, and personalization into her products.

We really enjoyed our experience at King Island Distillery! Heidi and Shane were very friendly and shared some of their stories and experiments with us! Well worth a visit if you’re into vodka and gin 😀
