What to Expect 

The experience begins with a delicious whiskey cocktail made and poured in the distillery’s rustic front bar before moving into a guided tour of production that traces whiskey’s journey from local grain to glass. You learn how Western Australian corn, wheat and malted barley are milled and mashed, how the spirit is distilled on site and how it is laid down into charred oak barrels to mature. The tour leads into the barrel storage area where tastings unfold among the very casks shaping future releases. Six expressions are presented in sequence with light snacks to refresh the palate, and expert commentary ties each pour back to what you have seen and heard so that by the final Cask Strength glass you understand not just how the whiskey tastes but how its character was built.

What’s Special

The masterclass brings the founders’ story alive. Once dismissed as ‘young whippersnappers’, Jimmy and Al began without formal training, teaching themselves through trial, error and stubborn persistence. That hands on ethos still shapes production today, from grain selection to bottling. It has earned serious recognition along the way, including global honours at the World Whiskies Awards for their Red Corn release, proof that Western Australian grain and small batch craft can stand on the world stage.

What further elevates the tour is how close you are to it all. The smell of warm mash, sweet spirit and charred oak sits in the air as you move through the space, long before the first tasting pour. Seeing the whiskey in its raw, evolving stages gives weight to what ends up in your glass. By the time you taste the final dram, you have already experienced the labour, patience and care behind it. And that context changes everything.
