Brisbane Launch Cape Byron Whisky:A Celebration w/ Jim McEwan & Eddie Brook

Join Jim McEwan and Eddie Brook for a night of celebrations to launch Cape Byron Distillery’s first single malt whisky release to the Australian public.

The world-renowned master distiller has inspired generations of whisky distillers, blenders and fans through his tenures with Scotland’s Islay distilleries Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Ardnahoe and now Australian distillery Cape Byron in the hinterland of Byron Bay.

Jim has played a pivotal role in the birth of Cape Byron’s new spirit, with his wealth of experience evident in this intriguing new Australian whisky from where the rainforest meets the sea. And now he now shares this legacy with Eddie Brook.

Guests joining this exclusive event can expect a signature Brookie’s G&T on arrival, some witty banter and cheeky tales from the dynamic duo whilst sharing a few drams and priority access to the first bottles of whisky before they are released to the general public.

This event will give attendees the privilege to get their hands around the distillery’s first release before they go on sale online or with any retailers in the country.

The event will be showcasing four releases from the distillery including: Cape Byron ‘The Original’ Single Malt Whisky and the 'Chardonnay Cask' Single Malt Whisky, a limited release.

There will be a selection of canapes served for guests on arrival.

The first release of Cape Byron Whisky will only be available to the public through attending a launch event in your closest city or signing up to the exclusive Whisky Club waitlist here. The highly anticipated first release is strictly limited to the launch events and Whisky Club recipients.
