My wife and I had a great time at the distillery. I had low expectations for the rainforest tour, but it turned out to be really good and quite informative. Our host Elias did a great job. The gin tasting and information session (on the distillation process) was also really good. Thoroughly recommend this as an activity.

We popped in to the Pretty Parrot Distillery today on our tastings of Tumut and enjoyed a tasting from Dave - and nothing was too much trouble! We didn’t make a booking (sorry! ????) but Dave was more than accomodating. He gave us a run down on the makings of the beverages and where they got their inspiration from. The gins and liqueurs are deeeeelicious, which was obvious as all 8 in our group walked out with 3 bottles in tow! Congratulations on the silver medal in London, we will definitely be back and reordering our bottles online - Thanks again Dave! ????

Great little distillery in Griffith. Friendly staff and very tasty gin. Michelle was fantastic in giving us a background to her gin making and the equipment needed to achieve such high standards. The other artist on site, the 'Copper Still" maker, Mark shared his experiences and skills needed in manufacturing the equipment and the standards they adhere to. Well worth a visit.

I came across Exclusively Mudgee when researching what we should do for our trip. Having Steph arrange to host a wine tasting at our accommodation was just perfect after a day travelling. Steph is very knowledgeable on wines and local produce and she gave us some great tips on what we could do over the next few days. The six of us had a fun few hours wine tasting and nibbling on the local produce and everything Steph supplied was delicious. We also ordered some more wine from her, which was delivered the next day. A great first night in Mudgee.

This was the last part of our tour and definitely lots of fun tasting all the different flavours of vodka in test tubes. Also tried schnapps and loved the ginger one which we purchased the large size. Very knowledgeable young man serving our group and such a different place to the previous wineries we had visited. Loved that it is all certified organic too. Defintely worth a visit here, but not if you're driving as the alcohol percentages are very high 40% and 20%. Loved this place.
