At Imbue, we believe great spirits should tell a story - and taste like one too.
Join us at Distillery Door, our on-site experience space within Imbue, nestled in the scenic hills of Research. Come and see where the magic happens, as we transform simple ingredients into something truly exceptional.
Imbue Distillery was founded by Mel and Mick Sheard, who turned years in hospitality into something a little more spirited. What started as an idea quickly became a range of bold, flavour-driven spirits, made with local botanicals and a focus on doing things thoughtfully (and a little differently).
In 2019, close friends Luke and Nikki joined the mix, bringing balance, structure and just enough logic to keep the creativity in check.
Together, the four founders share decades of experience across the food and drink world - from bakeries and catering to retail, wholesale and hatted restaurants. The result? A collection of premium spirits that are expressive, well-balanced and made with intent.
From contemporary gins to whisky and liqueurs, each release is an exploration of flavour - sometimes nostalgic, sometimes unexpected, always considered.

Wedgetail Estate is a small, family-run winery located in the Nillumbik hills, on the western fringe of the Yarra Valley, and Melbourne's closest wine region.
Our cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are crafted from estate-grown fruit with minimal intervention, allowing each wine to reflect the character of our vineyard site and the season.
Our cellar door is set inside the rammed-earth winery where you can see, and sometimes smell, the wines in production.
Whether you're discovering our wines for the first time or returning with friends, Wedgetail Estate is a place to slow down, share a bottle and enjoy a different side of the Yarra Valley.

Four friends, one passion for exceptional spirits, and a love for sharing good times.
Four Friends Gin began with a simple idea: to create high-quality drinks we would enjoy ourselves, while having fun and being kind to the planet.
Unlike most gin producers, we create our own alcohol from scratch using triple-filtered rainwater, ensuring the purity and quality of every bottle.
From there, we handcraft our gin and vodka in small batches, using locally sourced ingredients to give you a true taste of the Yarra Valley from raindrop to glass.
Available via the website and at events local and afar. See links.
