Enjoy hearing a bunch of tales from our team, who are just as good at spinning yarns as they are with their spirit knowledge.
Old Young's Distillery
We are an award winning distillery, passionately creating premium spirits since 2016.
Proudly situated in West Australia’s Swan Valley, we produce our signature gin and vodka products on-site, as well as offering tasting experiences, classes, and dining at Old Youngs Kitchen next door.
How It All Started
James Young founded the distillery in 2016, backed by his philosophy of “work smart, be local, embrace silly and get dirty”. Within the first year of opening, we were awarded ‘Australia’s Best Distillery’, consecutively winning it again the second year and more recently, taking out the International Craft Producer of the Year Award for 2023 — so we must be doing something right.
Here at Old Young’s we love pushing the boundaries of flavour, and aren't afraid to do things differently. We use serious craftsmanship to create seriously fun spirits, and are continuously innovating to create our next delicious top-shelf concoction.
Refined Spirits
for the young at heartIt's in our name. It is our mission to create superior crafted spirits for those who don’t take life too seriously, appreciate a damn good drink, and enjoy raising a glass to good times.
Our family of unique spirits are the result of dedicated craftsmanship, combining the finest local ingredients, innovative distilling techniques and the bold creativity of the clever Old Young’s distillers.
Each and every bottle produced is a labour of love, where passion and creativity come together to ensure that every sip delivers a lasting impression. We are driven to craft premium spirits that bring both joy, and people, together.

Juniper Society

We are obviously biased, but we think that’s a pretty exciting way to kickstart each new month.
The Old Young's Manifesto
(OUR THOUGHTS ON LIFE, A.K.A. HOW TO BE BETTER)First...
• Work Smart • Love Hard • Play Often • Sleep More •
• Stay Present • Be Local • Embrace Silly • Get Dirty (but) Stay Clean •
• Laugh • Cry • Run • Dance • Sing •
• Stop That (and) Slow down •
Then...
• Celebrate others success • Don’t be shit •
• Have one thing you are awesome at •
• Get off your phone • Show some fucking passion •
• Make something • Making money doesn’t count • Making babies does •
• Never stop exploring, never stop learning, share that with others •
• We all fuck up. Make good, learn, be better and move on •
• Life is far too short, squeeze every drop out of it •
and, of course …
• Drink better •
And Finally...
• Sometimes you just won’t understand •
• An argument is not a fight •
• You are not as important as you think •
• You are more loved than you think •
• Its ok to do things alone • Its ok not to be busy •
• There is no good reason to do a half arsed job •
• Teaching is the best way of learning •
• The past is important, what you do next is much more so •
• Change is inevitable, roll with it •
• Success is whatever you decide it to be •
