Need an excuse to have a road-trip? Or do you want to taste first-hand the inspiration of the distinct regions around Victoria and meet the makers?

Then this list might be handy.

I wanted to highlight the amazing distilleries located around beautiful Victoria.

Of course, if somehow I’ve missed anyone, please let me know via the form below.

Remember, so many of these places have a vital role in their communities, family-owned for the most part, all-in.

They make it, bottle and label it, go to the local markets (a great way to meet them too), hoping to get enough sales to make it worth it.

Often driving on some dodgy country roads each way. Then running a tasting room, employing the locals where jobs might be scarce, the additional expense of travel and shipping being away from a major centre.

But above all, they are proud to express through their spirits the landscapes they call home.
