Move over beer, a local Gold Coast vodka distillery is making waves producing a product never before seen in Australia.
Located at Molendinar, Panezski Artisan Distillery isn’t just the only dedicated vodka distillery located in South East Queensland, but it goes one step further.
“We produce two very distinct types of Polish style vodka, but what sets us apart in the market is all of our products are produced in house, making us one of only a handful of distilleries in Queensland that are completely grain to bottle and this is making waves in the industry,” said Panezski Artisan Distillery co-owner, Paul Chapman.
“We know how much us Aussies love our spirits, and to be able to create a selection of high-quality spirits with strong European and South American origins, many of which have never been produced in Australia before, is really exciting for us and a real coup for the Gold Coast.
Chapman also stated that whilst Panezski Artisan Distillery is young, all recipes are steeped in tradition ensuring each batch is of exceptional quality to let the flavour of the spirit shine by following traditional methods with a bit of help from modern technology.
“My wife, Ness and I have spent the past few years perfecting our recipes to the point where we aren’t just producing top-shelf vodka, but also gin including a unique sipping gin, a Polish-styled honey vodka, Krupnik as well as Aguardiente known for its origins deep in South America,” said Chapman.
The husband-and-wife team have taken their passion for distilling to the highest level and created a truly unique guest experience with a unique 1920s cocktail lounge themed cellar door and tasting room.
“Our guests have the opportunity to step back in time, browse our extensive cocktail menu, enjoy European-styled tapas and listen to live music, or even book in for one of our High Cocktails; a high tea with a difference,” said Chapman.
“Every guest truly has a special experience when they visit Panezski. We have hosted celebrations from Christmas parties, birthdays, engagements, anniversaries and several weddings.
“We are also thrilled to announce we have just launched regular live jazz evenings at the Distillery, where local musicians showcase their amazing talents, really complementing the atmosphere of the venue.”
Located at Unit 1, 28 Activity Crescent, Molendinar, Panezski Artisan Distillery is truly a Gold Coast hidden gem which is quickly becoming a must-visit destination for locals and tourists alike.
