Founded in March 2018, Summerleas Distillery Tasmania is proudly owned and operated by Sarah Gunn, a 7th generation Tasmanian. Summerleas Distillery is the start of a family legacy. A daring dream to leave something of value for the next generation to build upon.
Summerleas Distillery is nestled in the foothills between kunanyi/Mount Wellington and Storm Bay in an area known as Summerleas – a unique microclimate encompassing the cool air rolling over the mountain, offset with the salt laden sea breezes blowing in off the roughest piece of water in the world.
Here in a hidden world of valleys, creeks and tall timbers with birds and wildlife aplenty, the distillery operates – quietly producing spirits of the highest quality at one with the Summerleas’ environment.
Being a small, family-owned distillery allows us to recycle, re-use and re-circulate, ensuring nothing goes to waste as a result of our operations.
We use the finest Tasmanian and International ingredients to produce a vibrant range of handcrafted, small-batch spirits – a traditional selection for discerning palates.
