FAR Distilling is what happens when five generations of Hunter winegrowing meet contemporary cold distillation. The vineyard and the distillery share an address: Field of Mars Block 1 Shiraz ripens beside the stills at 989 Hermitage Road, next door to Keith Tulloch Wine, and Latara’s dark cracking clay grows the Semillon for our Semillon Slammer. Inside, two stills do two different jobs. The copper pot gives a spirit its warmth and backbone. The cold still catches the florals, leaf and citrus just as they smell in the hand. Between them sits a library of more than 100 catalogued distillates, every one distilled here.
FAR is Jess and Ben Whittemore-Tulloch: two people, two stills and five generations of Hunter winegrowing behind them, at 989 Hermitage Road, Pokolbin. Every bottle is made here in small batches. Taste four of our spirits for $10 upstairs at the Keith Tulloch Wine cellar door, or order online and we will ship anywhere in Australia.
