Distillery Tour and Guided Tasting

Since November 2015, the grand and historic Dysart House in Kempton has been the proud home of Old Kempton Distillery. Nestled in the heart of Tasmania, this charming 1840s coaching inn has become a place where tradition meets craftsmanship—where single malt whisky, gin, liqueurs, and special releases are handcrafted using 100% Tasmanian ingredients.
Your journey begins with a fully guided tour, starting in the drawing rooms of Dysart House, where stories of its past unfold—tales of the families who lived there, the travelers who passed through, and perhaps even a ghost or two. As the history comes alive, you’ll be introduced to the fascinating distillation process before stepping behind the scenes into the working heart of the distillery.
Here, in the bond store, rows of barrels in all shapes and sizes cradle maturing whisky—each one quietly evolving with time. The scent of oak and spirit fills the air, and you’ll get a rare glimpse into the daily workings of a small-batch distillery.
After the tour, settle into the elegant Cask Lounge, located within the original cellar of the coaching inn. Here, your experience continues with a guided tasting of four signature Old Kempton Distillery spirits—a moment to savour the craftsmanship in every sip.
If you’re feeling peckish, lunch is available daily and highly recommended. Choose from antipasto platters featuring local Tasmanian produce, traditional Devonshire tea, or our rotating selection of daily specials. The café also offers expertly made cocktails, coffee, and additional tastings, open from 10am to 4pm.
Before you leave, wander through our charming Cellar Door—a space filled with Old Kempton Distillery products, unique spirits, and keepsakes to remember your visit to Dysart House.


At Old Kempton Distillery, it's more than a tour—it’s a story, an experience, and a taste of Tasmania’s rich heritage in every glass.
Please note: we also offer take-home whisky packs for all designated drivers who wish to still be included on the tour.

Premium Distillery Tour and Lunch Package for 2

Tucked away in the heart of Tasmania, the historic Dysart House in Kempton has been home to Old Kempton Distillery since 2015. Within these grand sandstone walls, we craft a range of small-batch spirits—single malt whisky, gin, and liqueurs—each one made with 100% Tasmanian ingredients and a whole lot of passion.
Your experience begins with a warm welcome and a guided stroll through the halls of Dysart House, where stories of its past come to life. You’ll learn about its colourful history and get an introduction to the traditional art of distillation. From there, we’ll take you behind the scenes into our working distillery and bond store, where rows of maturing whisky barrels line the walls—each with its own tale to tell. And if you’re lucky, you might just catch a whisper of one of the house’s legendary ghost stories…
After your tour, unwind in our elegant Cask Lounge, nestled within the old coaching inn that now serves as our cellar door. Here, you’ll be treated to a guided tasting of four handcrafted Old Kempton spirits, followed by our premium antipasto platter, showcasing some of the best produce Tasmania has to offer. To complement your meal, you can select a bottle of fine Tasmanian wine to share—because great food and great spirits deserve great company.
Before you go, take a moment to explore our Cellar Door, filled with our signature spirits, locally made produce, and keepsakes to remember your visit. Round out your afternoon with a freshly brewed coffee or tea, the perfect way to toast to an unforgettable day.
And for our designated drivers—we haven’t forgotten you! Take-home tasting packs are available so you can enjoy the full Old Kempton experience later, at your leisure.






This is more than a tour. It’s a taste of Tasmania’s spirit—both in the bottle and in the story
