The team at Creative Tours have a wide range of tours canvassing the best distilleries and breweries around Noosa catering to groups and private charters. With the inclusion of cheese tasting, market and behind the scenes farm tours, Creative Tours have curated comprehensive Sunshine Coast tours to suit just about every palate. For the Noosa Pacific team, the best value centres around their Noosa Distillery Tour. For us, this ticks all the boxes: great locally produced spirits (and beers), beautiful scenery and a delicious lunch over 5.5hours, with guests back in time to mix up one more drink on their balcony over sunset.
On the Noosa Distillery Tour, there are a number of pick up locations (if you book out the private charter, Creative Tours will meet you at Noosa Pacific’s front door), and you’ll be on the road heading to the Sunshine Coast Hinterland at 11am. The first stop is in the gorgeous and historic town of Cooroy at the 2020 Distillery. Receive a drink on arrival and learn about the gin making process before being guided through a gin flight. Hate gin? They’ve got beer too!
Next stop is one of the Noosa Pacific team’s favourite spots on the Sunshine Coast: the Pomona Distillery. The picturesque countryside around Pomona is a wonderful backdrop to this rustic yet refined drinking and eating house. Try their gin or vodka, or go for a curated wine or beer to have with what we can assure you will be a delicious lunch. Back on the tour, your last stop is at the Noosa Heads ‘Fortune’ Distillery. Housed in a chic industrial space that exudes a relaxed and urbane vibe, this final tasting ends on a high with a choice from Fortune’s range of seriously-mixed gin cocktails. Located in the same venue as Noosa brewing stalwart, Land & Sea, this final stop offers yet another excellent opportunity to taste and buy supplies.
Once back at your Noosa Pacific apartment, put your feet up as the sea breeze wafts by and toast to a day well spent.
