Woowarra Spirits is proudly Castlemaine, crafting small‑batch spirits rooted in local provenance and meticulous technique. The reborn Woowarra Castlemaine Pastis carries the same recipe and producer that won gold for its predecessor at the 2025 Royal Australian International Spirits Awards and preserves the balance and clarity that made Forêt Pastis beloved nationwide.

Led by Nathan Strathmore Malcolm, Woowarra blends field‑to‑bottle integrity with rigorous craft. Many botanicals are grown or sourced within Castlemaine and central Victoria; recipes are hand‑tuned, and every run is distilled and finished with an eye to balance and terroir. That same philosophy shapes our broader range: collaborative pommeau with Daylesford Cider made from heritage apples and barrel‑matured in ex‑Chardonnay and rare tawny barriques, small‑batch single malts aged in large casks, and a quince eau‑de‑vie distilled from locally harvested fruit.

Woowarra Spirits exists where Castlemaine craft meets world‑class taste. Each release is a considered expression of place, made for curious newcomers and discerning enthusiasts alike.
