Step into the shadows this winter at Dark Night at Callington Mill Distillery — an exclusive, immersive dining experience inspired by the spirit of Dark Mofo. Your evening begins with a warm welcome cocktail, enjoyed fireside under the night sky, before moving indoors for a five-course shared feast designed to awaken the senses. As the night deepens, guests will take part in a rare and memorable ritual: the charring of a whisky cask.

Pull up a stool with our distiller, Blair Whitehead, for ninety minutes that change the way you drink whisky.

The Callington Mill Whisky Sessions are intimate, unhurried, and led by the person who actually makes the spirit. This first session is your way in. A relaxed conversation through what really defines whisky: the role of oak, the truth behind natural colour and chill filtration, and why first-fill casks matter more than almost anything else in the glass.
our signature Whisky Macchiato.
