Whisky Ambassadors

Paying our respects in person to Bill and Lyn Lark is going to be an amazing occasion. In recognition their tireless efforts, as pioneer's, mentors, friends and awesome ambassadors of our industry in Tasmania and the world. Heidi Weitjens will fly to Hobart to be with the Larks and fellow friends in the Liquor and distilling industry at this special celebration evening.

What to say on Mother's Day?
