Seadrift Distillery

Inspired by a growing trend towards people really being mindful as to how they consume (or don’t consume) alcohol, Seadrift Distillery was crafted to provide an “adult -tasting non-alcoholic-spirits”.

How Did it all Start? 

After 20 years of working in London, Carolyn and Alistair moved back to Carolyn’s hometown in Sydney’s Northern Beaches in search of a more natural, peaceful life.

Before long, the duo found themselves in the daily rat race and decided to push the button on change and dive into the venture we now all know as Seadrift Distillery.

In bringing the Seadrift range to life, Alistair and Carolyn put their learnings from their corporate days together, being:

  • Alistair’s design skills, on the back of running one of London’s largest branding agencies; and
  • Carolyn’s skillset in product innovation after working with major global alcohol brands,

and set out to create a spirit range that combines non-alcoholic spirits with the local tastes and ingredients of Sydney’s Northern Beaches. 

With that, in 2019 Seadrift was created and Australia’s first non-alcoholic distillery was born in Brookvale!

How is Seadrift Made?

Using hand-beaten copper pot stills sourced from Portugal, the small batch crafted Seadrift range brings a unique take on non-alcoholic spirits to your glass. 

The range is crafted through distillation at low temperatures to capture and produce a spirit that brings:

  • freshness and smoothness to the palette; and
  • unique characteristics that help it stand out from the growing crowd.

What is in the Seadrift Range?

The range of Seadrift Distillery drinks, at the time of writing this, sits at two and includes:

  • Seadrift Classic – refreshing with its top notes of Kaffir lime leaves and Coriander and a mouthcoating depth aided by sea kelp.
  • Seadrift Coastal – refreshing and complex, the Costal brings torn basil sweetness matched against the bounce of lemongrass before being rounded out with peppery juniper. Much like the Classic, the Costal also comes with the mouthcoating depth of local sea kelp.
