Distilled in Epping

Great stories start with a twist.

Gin and vodka, made by hand in our little distillery inside Republic Tavern. Then poured into the cocktails on our taps, a few steps from the still.

A 380 litre still and a lot of patience.

Our still sits right there in the Tavern, under the "Spirits with a Twist" sign. Every batch is made in small runs, tasted, tweaked and tasted again, then bottled or sent straight to the cocktail taps.

There is no greater tragedy than a bottle left to gather dust. So we don't let ours.
