The St Agnes Distillery is located in Renmark on the quite banks of the Murray River and is Australia’s oldest family owned and operated distillery.

The first distillations were in 1911 utilising oversupplied Sultana grapes to make a neutral spirit for fortifying wine.  In 1925 the first exceptional brandies were blended and St Agnes Distillery and Brandy was born.

The historic copper pot stills made by HJ Jennings in the 1950’s are a highlight of any tour as are the stunning barrel halls, home to almost 5000 barrels of quietly maturing brandy, and now whisky.

Today St Agnes Brandies are Australia’s most awarded spirits and the St Agnes Distillery and will be celebrating 100 years of distillation excellence in 2025.

St Agnes Distillery also makes the award winning certified organic Blind Tiger Gin range and Camborne Single Malt Whisky a range of single cask whiskies.
