Puss & Mew Distillery in Nunawading is a boutique gin distillery with a classy, vintage-industrial vibe, complete with cozy lounges, botanical accents, and a refined bar setup.

This award-winning distillery (Champion Victorian Distiller 2023) specialises in small-batch, artisanal gin using traditional distillation methods, including steeping, vapour infusion, and compounding.

Their range includes:

• Signature Dry Gin — balanced with citrus and root notes
• Australian Dry Gin — featuring local botanicals like finger lime and peppermint gum
• Spiced Turkish Delight Gin — infused with rose petals, hibiscus, and warming spices
• Honey Coconut Gin — sweet and nutty, featuring toasted coconut and fig
• Navy Strength Gin — a stronger variant of the signature gin for enhanced flavor.

A three-hour immersive experience where you become a “real distiller.” You’ll use their copper alembic still, nicknamed "Dudley", and craft your own gin using a personalised selection from the botanical wall.

For those inclined toward whisky, there's a five-hour intensive workshop (AUD 275) where you engage in the full process from mashing to distilling, tasting, and even bottling. The experience includes grazing boards, hot food, and a whisky cocktail, plus the option to pre-purchase a bottle of your spirit once it's aged.
