Distillery Info
During the course of 2015, the old hayshed at Shene Estate was rebuilt to accommodate the Shene Estate Distillery. Nestled within the estate’s magnificent heritage precinct, the distillery will give new life to old buildings, and ensure their heritage values are retained and supported into the future. Inside, the distillery is state of the art but externally it will marry perfectly with the estate’s historic character. A showcase of rare trades.
Shene Estate & Distillery’s products reflect the merging of the old and new. Our aim is to create spirits which are infused with new flavours and experiences, but preserve the essence of traditional distillation practices.
We use only copper pot stills made by Tasmania’s own master still-maker Peter Bailly, and our techniques are those that have remained largely unchanged for centuries.
The Shene Distillery is home to Tasmanian's largest copper pot still producing our single malt Mackey Whisky. Distillery Notes
