This Aussie Craft Spirit Company is the Perfect Home-Grown Bar Companion

When it comes to the more specialised products that are essential to any home bar, the spirits and liqueurs market is dominated by global brand names. So much so that in many cases the brand becomes synonymous with the booze—Frangelico for hazelnut liqueur, Di Saronno for amaretto and so on.

White Possum is an online beverage retailer and distillery that hopes to change all this by bringing home-grown Australian products into the mix. By relentlessly promoting Aussie brands and even making its own award-winning drops, White Possum is bringing the market home, one liquor cabinet at a time. Read on for more details!

Who is White Possum?

White Possum is equal parts e-bottle shop and distillery. Operating out of Melbourne, Australia the company has taken up the noble cause of getting Aussie spirit brands out there and into bars and liquor cabinets both in the homeland and abroad.

Unlike a traditional retailer, White Possum’s main offering is a regular subscription service that sees a variety of hand-selected spirits, liqueurs and aperitifs delivered to your door on a monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly basis. The best part is, every drop on offer in this service comes from an up-and-coming Aussie producer.

Customers have the option to receive Aussie gin exclusively- which incidentally, is an absolutely booming industry—as well as an assortment of everything else from whiskey to rum, coffee liqueur to sweet vermouth. White Possum’s list of producers is continuously growing, and today the company’s award-winning inventory encompasses an exciting variety that even *experienced* drinkers might rarely come across.

What They Do

On top of platforming its favourite hand-selected Aussie brands, White Possum makes a handful of incredible products to fill the gaps in the Australian-made market. Its award-winning “Naked liqueurs” line so far includes bittersweet Dark Cacao, Hazelnut, Amaretto, and now Maraschino liqueurs.

The company also offers a handful of "new-make" spirits, a type of raw, unaged whiskey. These spirits are an interesting quaff on their own and are loaded with infinite potential, given a little barrel-aged love and a dash of creativity.

As the perfect complement (or a cheeky gift for any whiskey-dependent in your life) the company also offers miniature American oak barrels, authentically made and perfect for ageing the raw spirits into something unique and unforgettable.

So Why Choose White Possum?

Aside from the obvious virtue of supporting a domestic spirits industry, buying with or subscribing to White Possum puts much-needed resources in the hands of the huge range of Australian charities that it supports.

What’s more, White Possum’s products are entirely cruelty-free, which means that vegans and vegetarians can enjoy a drink with a clean conscience, without needing to do deep-dive research into unknown ingredients or mysterious production practices.

Be sure to head on over to White Possum’s website for a look at the products on offer, and be welcomed to the world of Australian-made spirits.
