Old Kempton Distillery is located in an 1840s mansion called Dysart House, in the picturesque colonial town of Kempton. A comfortable 40-minute drive from Hobart and 2hrs from Launceston.

The Distillery offers a range of tasting flights including Whisky, Gin and Liqueurs. They have a range of tour options and an all-day Cafe. The Cellar Door is full of locally made produce, including Olde Spikey Bridge Peanut Butter, Tasmanian Kitchen Pantry, and Port Arthur Lavender Farm products.

A fresh, home-cooked menu is available, including the popular Devonshire Tea made fresh daily, house-made whisky beef pies, and antipasto platters. They also have cocktails, espresso coffee, hot chocolate, and milkshakes. Please feel free to contact us about group bookings by emailing ahead.

They cater to functions from 8 people to 40 and love to make their day special to them in any way they can.

The distillery is only a short 1-min drive off the Midlands Highway with plenty of parking for vehicles of all sizes, including buses and camper vans.

They have a Distiller Experience to teach you all things distilling, and you can even purchase and mature your own 20L barrel of whisky!
