Distiller for a Day at Adelaide Hills Distillers Academy

Route 9 Distillery

Craft Your Own Spirit – From Still to Sip Whether you're a gin enthusiast or curious about crafting your own botanical vodka, this immersive hands-on experience lets you step into the role of distiller for a day. Each participant (or duo at a shared station) is set up with a hand-made Italian copper still—your personal distilling station for the day. Starting with a clean base spirit, you'll be guided through building a completely unique recipe, tailored to your own flavour preferences. You'll explore a wide selection of botanicals—from time-honoured favourites like juniper and citrus, to native and lesser-known aromatic gems. With expert guidance from their distilling team, you'll learn the techniques we use to balance flavour, aroma, and texture in every bottle. What you'll do: Select your botanicals and create your personalised recipe Distill your spirit using traditional copper stills Enjoy a delicious lunch while your creation comes to life Bottle, label, and seal your own custom spirit Take home a 700ml bottle of your handcrafted gin or botanical vodka Book your station now and begin your distilling journey. Spots are limited and sessions begin promptly at 11:00 am every Friday and Saturday – Bookings essential
