To sit along side the lists of Australian Rum, Gin and Vodka and Vermouth here on the website, I’ve have compiled the following list of commercial producers Single Malt Whisky, Rye Whisky and blended Scotch and other expressions.

Many of these have established a reputation for world class spirits. I enjoy presenting the new wave of Aussie whisky/ whisky through a series of masterclasses I present around Australia and telling the stories of the history of the spirit in Australia and the contemporary distillers journeys.

Also in some instances they are producers, rather than distillers, meaning that their spirits are made under contract by another distiller.
