Angela Andrews

The Climb

At Fleurieu Distillery in Goolwa, Australia, owner and distiller Angela Andrews works from a place where maritime climate is part of the making, not just the setting. The house style carries that influence plainly: the sea is present in the spirit’s profile, and the distillery’s location remains tied to how the whisky reads in glass. The work here is shaped by place, and by the discipline required to hold that influence steady from batch to batch.
