Visit websiteAbout Tamborine Mountain Distillery
Boutique mountain distilling meets playful experimentation, pouring craft spirits and house liqueurs. Inside the timber-lined tasting room, visitors line up $10 tasting paddles to sample four distinct pours—ranging from roasted wattle toffee to herbal infusions and butter whisky. Out on the sunny lawn, groups unwind over generous cheese platters and grazing boards while kids head straight for the garden swing set. Hands-on workshops let you blend your own custom bottles, but even a casual stop delivers unpretentious pours and dry mountain wit behind the bar. It is easy to lose an afternoon wandering between copper stills and garden tables with a glass of native-botanical liqueur in hand.
- Tasting Paddles: Choose four distinct liqueurs or spirits for a ten-dollar flight, from wattle toffee to butter whisky.
- Hands-On Masterclasses: Interactive workshops teach the ins and outs of botanical blending so guests can bottle custom spirits.
- Garden Grazing: Relaxed lawn seating pairs grazing platters with an on-site swing set and slide for families.

Frequently Asked Questions
Designate a Driver for Tastings
Plan your transport or pace tastings carefully, as a single 4-sample tasting paddle totals 40 ml of alcohol (approximately one standard drink), which is vital to keep in mind when driving down the mountain.
Expect Light Platters Rather Than Hearty Meals
If visiting during a day trip, consider pairing your drinks with a grazing platter or cheese board rather than planning on a full hot lunch, as the menu is focused on platters rather than hearty meals.
Book Masterclasses and Workshops Ahead
Reserve workshops such as the make-your-own liqueur or cocktail masterclasses in advance via booking platforms like ClassBento to secure your group's private session.
