Husk Farm Distillery
Set among rolling sugarcane fields in the lush Tweed Valley, Husk Farm Distillery is one of the world’s few true farm-to-bottle distilleries – a place where visitors can connect with the land and experience the journey from paddock to glass.
They are seasonal distillers. In the summer months the stills run with Ink Gin, their iconic colour-changing gin made with butterfly pea flower and native lemon myrtle. When the annual sugarcane harvest begins, the distillery shifts gears to produce Husk Rum, crafted from freshly crushed cane grown on the farm itself.
Visitors can wander the beautiful grounds overlooking the Tweed Valley and Wollumbin, enjoy cocktails in the Cellar Door, or settle in for a long lunch at Planter’s Kitchen restaurant.
For those wanting to dive deeper, the Farm-to-Bottle Distillery Tour offers a behind-the-scenes look at how Husk Rum is made. Cut & crush your own sugarcane, sample the fresh juice and finish with a guided tasting flight in the barrel house. Alternatively, the daily Tasting Trail Tour showcases the native botanicals behind Ink Gin and the farm, discovering different spirits and cocktails along the way.
Just 20 minutes from Gold Coast Airport and 40 minutes from Byron Bay, Husk Farm Distillery is an easy and rewarding stop while exploring the Tweed’s thriving agri-tourism region.
