Cape Byron Distillery

Cape Byron Distillery is a drinks-focused cellar door at 80 St Helena Road in McLeods Shoot, a short drive from Byron Bay. The venue centres on the distillery’s range of spirits, with Brookie’s gin and Cape Byron Australian single malt whisky forming the core of the offering.

The range also includes liqueurs, aperitivo-style drinks, pre-mixed serves and non-alcoholic options. Gin styles span the classic Byron Dry Gin alongside seasonal and native-botanical expressions, while the whisky collection includes releases associated with different cask styles and flavour profiles. Liqueur and cocktail products add further variety for visitors interested in more than neat spirits.

As a cellar door, Cape Byron Distillery offers a place to engage with the brands and products in a setting dedicated to spirits rather than a conventional restaurant menu. The venue’s online offering also includes cocktail recipes and serves, giving the visit a strong connection to mixed drinks as well as bottles. The range suits visitors curious about Australian distilling, gin drinkers, whisky enthusiasts and those looking for ready-to-drink or alcohol-free alternatives.

The distillery has a clear sustainability focus, with environmental and ethical business practices positioned as part of the venue’s identity. That emphasis sits alongside a broad product range that includes botanical gin, Australian whisky, liqueurs, aperitivo products and pre-mixed drinks. The result is a cellar door with a modern, product-led character and a focus on the different ways spirits can be enjoyed.

Cape Byron Distillery also caters for private functions and venue hire, making it relevant to organised gatherings as well as individual cellar-door visits. Group arrangements, visit requirements and available facilities are best confirmed before arrival. The McLeods Shoot location provides a useful stop for visitors exploring the Byron hinterland and seeking a dedicated distillery experience outside the main town centre.
