Drifters End Distillery
Drifters End Distilling Company is a boutique Tasmanian distillery founded, owned and operated by sisters Sam and Chris Jones – lifelong travel companions, business partners, and best friends. Their journey across the world eventually brought them to Tasmania, a place that instantly felt like home and inspired them to create spirits that celebrate this island and the adventures that led them here.
At the heart of the distillery is Annie, their 600L copper pot still, proudly built in Tasmania and named after their mother, Anna, whose strength and encouragement continue to inspire their work. Together with Annie, Sam and Chris handcraft small-batch spirits that capture both the purity of Tasmania’s environment and the spirit of discovery.
Visitors to the Cambridge distillery, located just five minutes from Hobart Airport, can enjoy guided tastings and tours, making it the perfect first stop on arrival or a final taste of Tasmania before departure. The range includes classic Single Malt Whisky, Dry Gin, and Sloe Gin, alongside unique creations such as Spiced Pumpkin Gin and Absinthe.
With its welcoming atmosphere, unique location near the Cambridge Aerodrome, and exceptional spirits, Drifters End is a destination where every bottle tells a story worth sharing.
