Headlands Distilling Co.

Four friends founded Wollongong's first distillery in 2015, milling Riverina grain on-site through every stage before bottling. The standout range leans into the Illawarra: the Boobialla Gin uses exclusively Australian native juniper; the Daalgaal steeps Illawarra Plums for six months; a single malt finished in Seppeltsfield Apera and Muscat casks followed in 2020. Tours run Fridays and Sundays.
