Port Huon Cottages

A multi award winning water and gin distillery set in the picturesque Huon Valley, a leisurely 45 minute drive from Hobart. Our cellar door is adjacent to our beautiful 40 acre farm and production facility. Pure Mist by name and Pure Mist by nature. Winner of the worlds best low mineral sparkling water in 2023, we harvest mist water droplets from the slow moving Winter mist of the Huon Valley. There they are turned into still and sparkling water and a range of dry guns and premixed products, all available to taste on site.

Always wishing you were elsewhere? Well, now you can be. Elsewhere Vineyard is a family-owned vineyard specialising in cool-climate Pinot Noir, Rosé, Chardonnay, Riesling and the less common Gewürztraminer. Just a short drive from the picturesque town of Cygnet Elsewhere is situated in Glaziers Bay, overlooking the stunning Huon River in southern Tasmania. Elsewhere is not just a vineyard, it is also a working farm with an assortment of friendly animals including sheep, chickens and cows, providing an interesting distraction for those looking for more than just wine tasting. At the very relaxed cellar door, Owen will take you through the wines available for sampling, as well as provide some history about the vineyard, explain how the wine is grown, and what life is like owning a vineyard and farm. So whether it’s sampling superb Pinot or just relaxing and taking in the view. Be sure to come and visit this tranquil part of the beautiful Huon Valley.
