Callington Mill
Our home, Callington Mill, lies in Tasmanian’s picturesque Heartlands. It was built in 1837 for two reasons: to legally grind flour, and to illegally make whisky. After nearly two hundred years, we’re proud to return the mill to its original, illicit purpose—now perfectly legal, of course.
History
Callington Mill Distillery
On a scale not previously seen in Tasmania, Callington Mill incorporates state of the art Tasmanian Technology.
Our Whisky
Our master distillers craft our whisky with purely local Tasmanian ingredients: fresh highland water from the pristine Blackman river, and locally farmed barley.
The Importance Of Oak
All our casks have been matured in premium ex-fortified wine. They are predominantly French, European, and American oak that have been sourced from Spain and Portugal, the heartland of the Port and Sherry regions. The casks are shipped to our cooperage in Tasmania, before being filled with our single malt whisky in preparation for the maturation process.
