About Bellarine Distillery / the Whiskery
Bellarine Distillery operates its cellar door, known as The Whiskery, within a set of restored farm stables. Located in Bellarine, the venue focuses on the production and service of house-made gin and developing whiskies. The tasting room provides a rustic indoor environment and expansive outdoor garden spaces for visitors. Patrons can sample flights of house-distilled spirits or choose from a selection of cocktails featuring seasonal ingredients. The kitchen complements the drinks menu with wood-fired pizzas, local cheese platters, and grazing boards designed for sharing.
The site is situated near Portarlington Pier, making it a frequent stop for those travelling across the peninsula. Beyond the core spirit range, the bar stocks Victorian craft beers and regional wines. Staff provide information regarding the distillation processes and the botanical profiles used in gin releases. The large grounds allow for group bookings and casual weekend visits in a rural setting. This establishment functions as both a production facility and a hospitality venue for the local community and regional tourists.
