The Great Eastern Whisky Weekend marks the commencement of Tas Whisky Week 2024 in style. Over two memorable nights, guests are immersed in the world and camaraderie of Tasmanian distilleries with the unparalleled allure of Tasmania’s East Coast. The gathering will epitomise a Tasmanian Whisky Convergence, a celebration where the cardinal directions converge over a shared love of whisky: East, West, North, and South. The featured distilleries and their respective maestros are as follows: South – Kristy Lark-Booth and Killara Distillery North – Chris Condon and Launceston Distillery West – David Debattista and Hellyers Road Distillery East – Michael Briggs and Ironhouse Distillery The weekend’s proceedings will be overseen by a whisky figure familiar to some in Tasmania: Mr. Mark W Teague, as his alter ego WhiskyisMyJam. With a select capacity of only 35 guests, an exclusive atmosphere is curated to fully engage with the distillers and charming hospitality of your hosts. The program includes a series of ‘mini’ events, hosted by each distillery offering guests an intimate opportunity to delve deeper into their chosen spirits. Expect hikes with a dram, beach side activities, live music by one Tasmania’s best blues artists Pete Cornelius & Band, gourmet catering by Season and Fire culminating in a grand dinner held in the atmospheric bonding room.
