2026 Melbourne Royal Australian International Spirits Awards
More exciting awards news for Launceston Distillery, with three of our single malts receiving Silver medals at the 2026 Melbourne Royal Australian International Spirits Awards.
Competing alongside spirits from Australia and around the world, we were proud to see three of our whiskies recognised:
Silver: Peated Release
Silver: Cask Strength Tawny Cask Matured
Silver: Tawny Cask Matured
It’s another fantastic result for our small team at Hangar 17 and a proud moment to see our northern Tasmanian whiskies recognised on the international stage.
