Lift your spirits in the Byron Bay hinterland

 

The Byron Bay hinterland is not known for its wines, but the region is home to the Cape Byron Distillery and Cellar Door.

The distillery is home to Brookie’s gin and offers tastings, cocktails and tours.

Visitors can enjoy tours of the nearby rainforest and distillery, casual tasting flights and a range of seasonally inspired cocktails that can be enjoyed on the balcony.

Distillery tours include a G+T on arrival, a product tasting, tour and discussion for $40. The cellar door is open by appointment, so you’ll need to phone ahead.

The property is part of the Brook family’s macadamia farm and products include a dry gin, a slow gin and a macadamia and wattleseed liqueur.  Brookie’s have also just released their new pre-packed G&T’s with finger lime.
