“We deployed Vapour from start to finish at Kangaroo Island Spirits; From grain intake, through distillation, monitoring maturation and then tracking the finished product.

It’s a system that is well suited to distilleries and its biggest strength is its excellent barrel management capabilities which are second to none. Vapour also offers a good level of support; any time we needed help we usually heard back within 12 hours and we’re on the other side of the world!”

Charlie Schmidt

Distillery Manager, Kangaroo Island Spirits

When Australia’s first dedicated Gin distillery was founded on Kangaroo Island in 2006, there was a burning desire to create something that spoke of the beautiful place that we call home. ​

We don’t just want to create spirits that are from Kangaroo Island but embody the spirit OF Kangaroo Island, showcasing the best of what the island has to offer along with the character of the people that call it home.​

A spirit like no other.​
Distilled into spirits like no other.​
From a spirited place like no other.
