Margaret River Distilling Company is the home of Giniversity Gin, and sister distillery to Great Southern Distilling Company in Albany which produces the award-winning Limeburners, Tiger Snake and Dugite Whiskies. Tucked away amongst the native Peppermint trees, Margaret River Distilling Company is based in the heart of Margaret River just a short stroll from the centre of town. Enjoy a delicious meal and a tasting flight of premium spirits, or one of their scrumptious cocktails. Locally roasted coffee and a selection of local beers and wines are also available.

Head Distiller and Founder Cameron Syme has been distilling premium craft spirits since 2004, for the most part in Albany until Margaret River Distilling Company officially opened for business in November 2015.

All products produced are available to taste in the venue, offering casual tavern-style dining all day in a lush forest backdrop and just a short walk from the town centre. With an extensive range of tastings available there is sure to be something for everyone, including Single Malt Whisky, American style Whiskey, Gin, Vodka, and other special limited edition spirits.

To satisfy every need there is also a range of locally-sourced beer, wine, cider, coffee, and an all-day menu to keep the whole family happy. Plus they are dog-friendly!

If you have ever wanted to be a Distiller for a day, then the Giniversity experiences are the perfect way to give it a try. The Gin Blending Class takes you through the history of gin, learn spirit-making practices, sample the Giniversity range, and then design and blend your own bespoke recipe. Each participant then takes home their own custom 500ml bottle of gin.
 
Accommodation is available at the adjoining Riverglen Chalets, which is located just across the brook.

My husband and I had an amazing few hours doing the Gin hightea for his 60th birthday. The food was sensational!! The gin tasting was delightful and the service was impeccable.The staff were excited for me as I’d arranged our daughters to fly in secretly from Melbourne for their dad’s 60th and they arrived while we were doing the tasting. The look on my husband’s face was priceless!

Gin tasting what a delight. Chose 3 samples.... australian native inspired, a fruity sweet pink gin and a blue navy gin which was very strong. The native herb flavour a standout winner with us. Enjoyable tasting experience.
