About National Distilling Association
Training arm for the Australia Distillers Association
Welcome to the National Distilling Institute, established in 2023 with the support of the Victorian Government through the Victorian Distillery Door program. The National Distilling Institute is dedicated to the learning journey of distillers across Victoria and Australia.
In collaboration with the Spirts Victoria Association and the Australian Distillers Association, we aim to create a one-stop-shop for distillery courses, covering all areas of the distilling industry—from safety and complaints to sensory and business. These courses are delivered in-house and by third-party education companies worldwide to support you on your learning journey.
At the National Distilling Institute, we believe in providing more than just courses; we offer a holistic experience. Our journey begins with the curious novice and extends to the seasoned professional. Our diverse range of courses paints a clear path forward, ensuring that whether you’re a budding enthusiast or a seasoned distiller, there’s always room for growth, learning, and mastery.
Join us on this spirited adventure as we unlock the secrets of distillation, blending tradition with innovation, and raise a toast to the art and science of crafting exceptional spirits. Here at the National Distilling Institute, we’re not just shaping distillers; we’re crafting legacies. Cheers to the journey, and here’s to the spirit of excellence!
