The Adelaide Hills, a region celebrated for its world-class wines, now offers another reason to raise a glass. Robbers Dog, a boutique distillery, invites visitors to sample its exceptional range of handcrafted spirits, including gin, rum, vodka, and specialties like zesty limoncello. As the trend for boutique distilleries continues to grow, this destination offers a fresh way to experience the Hills’ creative craftsmanship, blending tradition with innovation in every sip.

As visitors begin their journey into the Barossa Valley in South Australia, they come across the charming township of Mount Pleasant, established in 1843. The town welcomes them with a beautiful street lined with plane trees, showcasing the best of the Adelaide Hills and Barossa Valley.

Situated on the main street, Robbers Dog is a family-owned small-batch boutique distillery. It proudly produces high-quality spirits and is one of the few genuine Australian distilleries that handle every step of production on-site, from mashing and distilling to aging. All their spirits are completely authentic, with no imported base spirits used.
