The Art of Distilling: How We Create Our Unique Spirits

At Tom Likker, our journey into distilling starts right here on the Gold Coast. Harnessing the rich, fertile soil of our home, we source locally-produced molasses and sugar cane for our spirits. Our process is a combination of traditional techniques, innovative strategies, and a hefty dose of creativity. Here's a glimpse into how we transform these humble ingredients into our distinct range of spirits.

Our Distillation Process

Our distillation process varies depending on the product we're crafting. We operate both pot and column stills to afford us the flexibility and control needed to create our unique spirits. Stripping runs and spirit runs are integral parts of our production, with each stage meticulously controlled to ensure we capture the purest essence of our ingredients.

Quality Above All

Ensuring the quality of our spirits is paramount at Tom Likker. We uphold strict controls throughout our distillation process. We are vigilant, leaving no room for error, as we believe our customers deserve nothing but the best. It's through our innovative strategies and attention to detail that we create our downright awesome spirits.

Developing Unique Flavors

Developing the unique flavors of our spirits is a blend of art and science. While we hold some secrets close to our chest, we can say that our pride in the products we produce - from our cane spirits and moonshine to the future rums we will release - shines through in the taste.

From Start to Finish

The time our process takes from start to finish can vary greatly, depending on the specific spirit we're producing. Each batch is carefully monitored, with our 300-litre still and 400-litre brewhouse providing us with the capacity to create exceptional spirits.

Bottling and Labeling

Bottling and labeling are the final steps in bringing our creations to life. We use a professional-grade canning machine for our ready-to-drink range and labeling machine for each of our products, ensuring a seamless transition from our distillery to your glass.

Aging Process

Looking ahead, we're excited about the aging process for our future rums. While we're presently focusing on our 'road to revenue' spirits like our Botanical Likker, Moonshine, and Cane Crescendo, our vision of maturing exceptional rums in smaller casks is firmly in our sights.

In the world of distilling, we're proud to stand out. We craft each spirit with passion, creativity, and a sense of adventure. The result? Exceptional, unique spirits that capture the essence of the Gold Coast. We invite you to join us on this exciting journey, one sip at a time.
