Seabourne Distillery celebrates the harmony forged between the land and sea, embracing the vibrant soul of Noosa.
Founded by Noosa local Hayden Weir, Seabourne Distillery offers a premium range of small-batch gins, aperitifs and limited releases made from an infusion of local botanicals.
Seabourne’s story stemmed from a desire to craft a range of spirits that reflect why so many of us fall in love with Noosa. Seabourne’s spirits are crafted to taste like Noosa feels, from the sea’s magnetic allure and the earth’s richness.
Seabourne Distillery won gold and silver medals at the San Fransico and Singapore World Spirit Competitions for 2022 in their first opening year.

Seabourne’s Master Distiller, Thiago Lopes, is a strategic engineer and a passionate naturalist. His obsession sparked with the birth of Brazil’s experimental microbrewing renaissance. Thiago sold bottles of homebrew from the back of a pushbike, all while mastering his degree in mechanical engineering.
He has since become one of the country’s most exciting new distilling talents, forging his reputation for complex and distinctive spirits at some of Australia’s most innovative independent distilleries.
