Hellyers Road Distillery

We recently visited the distillery, and I have to say, it was an awesome experience! As new shareholders, we were really excited to see everything up close, and our host, Emma, made it even better. She was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable, sharing all sorts of interesting tidbits about the distillation process and the history of the place. Even though the distillery wasn't in full swing during our visit, we had a good look at the factory and a really good explanation on how everything operates. It was fascinating to see behind the scenes! One of the highlights for us was bottling our own whisky at the end of the tour—it felt special to take home something we are now a part of. And the whisky tasting was magnificent. We were able to sample some really high-quality stuff, and Emma guided us through the flavors, which was really helpful. Overall, it was a great way to spend some time and I’d recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about the process and tasting some excellent whisky.

Lovely place with fantastic food! The best roasted potatoes in all of Tasmania. Believe me, you have to try it! And the coconut lime cheesecake was heavenly. The staff were so kind and made our visit a wonderful time. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

I visited here on another stop while cruising with Seven Seas. It was picturesque overlooking the mountains. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. If we had more time, we could have eaten a meal here as well. We bought 4 smaller bottles of their delicious whisky to take home. I truly recommend going here. You won't regret it.

Amazing!!!! I loved the experience! Micky made every tasting a true event, we had a world class wisky lecture. What a formidable experience. I can't wait to be back and have another opportunity to be served by the best, Micky the legend! Thank you for your time and patiente👌

Had a combined Valentine's Day lunch with friends visiting from Victoria. Gorgeous views, pleasant atmosphere and great food! They had a set menu for Valentine's Day, three courses including oyster entree! And of course the whiskies are good, and whisky cream liqueurs are to die for. The coffee "Irish cream" is my go-to favourite now!! 😋

One of a tourist attraction in Burnie is Hellyers whisky tasting distillery. I love the 3 cream whisky. The original won an international award. We tasted the whiskey and all taste different. I noticed the whisky brings out the cheese and nuts that came with it. The cream whisky taste good with the fudges. Fantastic view and experience. To think I am not a whisky drinker but whisky tasting was a great experience. We paid $25 each. The older whisky cost more of course.

Went for lunch at Hellyers Road Distillery Restaurant. Price a little on the higher end but serving is huge. Entree was fantastic! Mains were tasty. Polenta chips not crispy but still tasted good. Great selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Customer service was excellent. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Super friendly staff, guiding us through the whisky tasting experience explaining the differences in aging and taste between the different whiskies. We had lunch as well and was super tasty. Thank you

My favourite thing about this place is how they change the menu to match the season, winter is my absolute favourite because of the pot pie! Best damn pot pie I have ever eaten. It's amazing that they use so much Tasmanian produce, it makes such a difference in taste. The tour itself is quiet short, but can guarantee you'll be drunk by the end.

Have been visiting Tassie over the past week and took a trip up north to Hellyers. We only stopped here for about an hour so and did not have any food here. We did go on the tour at 10:30am, I think this runs daily (as we came on a Tuesday). The tour was about $17/18 and went for 45minutes. The guide went through the history of the distillery and the whisky making process in a good amount of detail. We also sampled two of the undiluted whiskies which are not available to the public. We were shown the distilling equipment and the barrel store. The guide also explained the history behind the barrels and let us in on facts about pricing. The products here are of a very reasonable price I think. The whisky has received good reviews and is about $80 for 750mL. I am not a whisky drinker, but will add what Thomas K thinks when he gets his bottle. Overall the venue is in a great setting and well worth a visit. Very friendly and accommodating staff. I would recommend to any yelpers and friends.

Just came here while on an exploratory road trip with friends. Beautiful setting with great views. Didn't have time for a meal so can't comment on their food. We did the guided tour that was good value for money. Told the story of the place. Shown the process of the whiskey and where it is created and stored. Tasted the two main whiskeys they produce. I found the whiskey too strong for me in flavour and alcohol percentage. Would be a nice place to visit for food in a group.

I was part of a tour off a cruise ship. I have problems standing for long periods so had to give up before the tasting. To taste you have to tour. A friend said the whiskey was good. I will never know.
