Clyde Mill

Clyde Mill brings together a distillery, restaurant and historic industrial setting at 254 Nant Ln, Bothwell. Set inside a restored water-powered flour mill, the venue connects the heritage of Tasmania’s Central Highlands with small-batch spirit production and seasonal dining.

The distillery produces single malt whisky and bespoke gin. Whisky is made in small batches and matured in the highland climate, with selected releases exploring different cask finishes. The gin range focuses on bright citrus notes and Tasmanian botanicals. Tastings and distillery tours provide an introduction to the production process, the building’s history and the character of the spirits.

Mill Kitchen offers a locally focused restaurant experience, with seasonal ingredients chosen for quality and regional character. The menu reflects relationships with producers from the surrounding community, giving the food a strong sense of place without taking attention away from the mill setting. The style is relaxed and welcoming, suited to a meal alongside a tasting or as part of a broader Central Highlands outing.

The setting adds a distinctive layer to the experience. Original mill heritage sits alongside contemporary distilling, while the restaurant and cellar door provide a social base for food, spirits and conversation. Events may include whisky launches, tastings, dinners and seasonal celebrations, and the venue also caters for functions, weddings and group occasions.

Clyde Mill suits visitors interested in Tasmanian whisky, craft gin, local produce and rural heritage. It works for a planned meal, a guided distillery experience or a group gathering, with the option to browse and purchase the distillery’s spirits. The Mill Kitchen is open from Friday to Sunday, while tours are arranged by appointment. Advance planning is appropriate for tastings, group visits and functions.
