Designed to target the peated whisky lover.
First ever vodka in the world to be peat smoked. Using Tasmanian Peat from the North West Coast of Tasmania which has almost identical climate and weather conditions to that of Scotland’s west coast. This spirit captures all of the unique qualities of our sheep whey vodka and infuses them with the pervasive character of Tasmanian peat smoke. This results in a balanced sipping Vodka. The spirit is divisive; yet elegant.
Tasting Notes: The nose is smokey but it is not until you drink it and break the liquid surface that the smoke explodes to another level before finishing very smooth which is super difficult to achieve.
Serving Suggestion: Neat. Paired with something savoury. Great with steak. Also pairs well with fresh oysters, salmon gravlax or your favourite cigar. Makes a mean Bloody Mary too. Or mix with our oaked vodka and you’ve got yourself a peated whisky kinda thing. Will also be an elegant, balanced and complex experience in a dirty martini. Versatile!

Hartshorn Distillery
Hartshorn Distillery shares land with Grandvewe Cheeses. We are the same family with the same goal: reducing waste and caring for the planet. Whey, often discarded in cheesemaking, is repurposed into alcohol. Using a welding rod, an old beer keg, and internet research, we created vodka. Double-distilled and unfiltered, we use only the best 10 percent of each distillate, producing 150 bottles per batch.
Our success with vodka led us to create gin, using sheep's whey and native botanicals like lemon myrtle, anise myrtle, wattleseed, juniper berries, and Tasmanian pepper leaf. We also make whey-based liqueur and whey-sky, a unique take on whiskey.
Hartshorn was born from a need to reduce waste and a desire to flip the script on traditional spirit-making and flip the bird to those who said it couldn’t happen. We’ve been told our packaging process — hand-painting and individually signing our name to our bottles — is ridiculous. And, look, maybe it is, but it’s also fizzy-knickers sexy and one of the most iconic bottle designs in Australia, holding its own on any bar shelf. We’ve also been told our small batch process is unsustainable. It’s not only still going, but it’s making some of the country’s most distinctive and award-winning craft spirits.
Local Craftsmanship
From the very beginning, we believed in all of this because we believed in the values it was being built on. We just wanted to make something good, something unique, that we’d held in our hands from start to finish. We’re gonna keep doing that, but it’s real nice that what we do has come to mean something to others too.
