Mornington Peninsula has its own family owned and operated Single Malt Whisky distillery, Chief’s Son, located in Somerville just five minutes off Peninsula Link.
Their tasting room is a hidden gem in an industrial area where you can sit and sip the nectars of the barrel, whilst being guided through a range of whiskies, all the time learning how whisky is made, what makes their whisky so unique and other whisky banter whilst overlooking the working distillery floor and barrel bond area.
Tours by the Distillers are a truly unique experience with their insights, the opportunity to get up close and personal with the still, taste whisky straight from the barrel and anything else special the distiller might have hidden away – it doesn’t get much better than that!
Come and congratulate them on their most recent win at the Australian Distilled Spirits Awards, you may even get to sample the award winning spirit – if there is any left!
