About
Our crew feels a deep connection to the ocean—heck, the Indian Ocean is right on our doorstep in our hometown, Margaret River. So, after stacking up awards like a tricky second album, we set our sights on new goals for our expanding spirits offering. Like the early sailors who relied on the West Winds to reach the remote shores when charting new territory, we are inspired by the pure waters and unique flora that flavour our products today. Our pioneering spirit shines in everything we do. But hold onto your hats—it wasn’t all smooth sailing. Before our official launch, it took us a whole year of tinkering and 45 distillations to craft our first gins, The Sabre and The Cutlass. But boy, did it pay off! The Cutlass was awarded a Double Gold—the first Australian spirit to do so—followed by a Gold for The Sabre just three weeks later at San Francisco's top spirit competition. Talk about making a splash... Since 2010, our crew of lovable larrikins have sailed the West Winds ship through choppy waters, braving the wild seas as we’ve conquered big waves to make our mark. Our mission: to showcase Australia’s unique botanicals on a global stage.
