What You’ll See
Your exclusive journey along the Sunshine Gin Trail commences at a comfortable hour in the morning, as our amiable and skilled driver warmly welcomes you onto our cozy, COVID-safe minibus. Secure your seatbelt, curate the ideal soundtrack for your day, and bask in the splendid drive to your inaugural destination by mid-morning: either the distinctive Steampunk Distillery or the engaging Diablo & Co.
Steampunk Distillery (Perfect for intimate groups of 6 or fewer)
The charming Steampunk Distillery is nothing short of extraordinary: established by two nurses and their faithful canine companion, they collaboratively create delectable handcrafted small batch gins infused with local botanicals and affectionate dedication. Unwind in this relaxed ambiance, surrounded by orchards and the company of friendly Angus cattle, as you savor an array of exceptional gins.
Diablo Co.
Diablo Co originated as a labor of love for Dimitris, a local venue owner who recognized the thriving community of craft beer enthusiasts on the Sunshine Coast but noticed a gap for passionate gin aficionados. Determined, he embarked on a mission to curate a range of exquisite gins crafted from locally-sourced ingredients and his own expertise. The outcome is a delightful assortment for you to savor while unwinding on Diablo Co’s sun-drenched deck.
After a leisurely hour of enjoying your first morning gins, it’s time to meander back to the bus. Embrace the serene surroundings and the awe-inspiring beauty of the area as we journey to our second distillery, Sunshine & Sons. Nestled within the hinterland rainforest, close to Queensland’s iconic Big Pineapple, this distillery is a hidden gem.
Sunshine & Sons Distillery
Conceived by a quartet of lifelong friends, the remarkable Sunshine & Sons Distillery harmoniously blends their affection for the Sunshine Coast with their deep-rooted expertise and adoration for finely crafted spirits. Their repertoire boasts an array of splendid vodkas and gins, as well as a Sunshine Coast cane spirit. You’ll receive a warm welcome for a tasting of their most exquisite gins, accompanied by amiable behind-the-scenes conversations about the intricacies of your chosen libations.
As we bid farewell to Sunshine & Sons in the late morning, a scenic 30-minute drive through the captivating hinterland awaits, leading us back to the coastline. It’s at this juncture that you’ll take a delightful detour from gin and indulge in the opulent flavors of luscious, rich rum during our lunch stop at Paradise Rum.
Paradise Rum – Gastronomic Delights & Tasting
Paradise Rum, a cherished family-owned establishment, patiently ages its spirits within American oak barrels for a span of five years before they are skillfully bottled in-house. However, you won’t need to exercise such patience as you’re treated to a pre-lunch rum tasting experience, guided by the warm and knowledgeable staff. Relish the gentle coastal breeze as you indulge in a delectable lunch freshly prepared to perfection.
Following a leisurely lunch and a rejuvenating stretch, it’s time to embark on the next leg of your journey. Step onto the bus and enjoy a brief journey to your final destination – the illustrious Beachtree Distillery Co.
