Located in Curlewis on the Bellarine Peninsula, Oneday Distillery is a unique destination. The handcrafted and rustic establishment oozes authenticity and charm. To experience Oneday is something you won’t forget. There is nothing “manufactured”, whether that be the buildings, interiors, food, drinks or experience. It all comes from the heart and a real purpose: to have their visitors leave with a smile on their faces.
It is the brainchild of Sam Murray and was created in 2001. His passion for history and spirits led to his first small batch gin which has become the flagship of the Distillery in Ewing Blyth gin.
Shipwrecked in 1853, Barwon Heads original hipster clambered ashore with only his gun in hand and famous gin recipe in his head. He settled by the Barwon River and fed the survivors of the Earl of Charlemont wreck with shredded beef from a local farmer’s bullock and later on he married the same farmers daughter, with whom he reared 11 children and 57 grandchildren.
Passed down through 5 generations, this shipwrecked gin is made with locally sourced botanicals and honours Ewing’s original recipe. The unique brand mark combines his name and year of arrival. The packaging has been inspired by his ocean journey. The colours represent the sea whilst the shape with the label embodies the ships sails. Blind embosses and bronze foils create a premium offering to be enjoyed by locals and ‘locals’ alike.
The second gin at Oneday Distillery pays homage to Sam’s Scottish heritage and does this proudly with the Murray family crest as the hero of the label. His love of red wines led to this fusion of juniper berries and unique local botanicals as well an elegant Pinot Noir Rosé influence.
Oneday Distillery Silk Gin is dedicated to those who love to sip and appreciate a glass of pinot noir but don’t want to buy a whole bottle.
The last one is the range is Salty Murray Ocean Vodka. Sam is an Ocean Grove local and is passionate about all things in the ocean. Whether that be fishing, surfing or taking his dog cider for walks on the beach.
Sam is a salt of the earth guy and this Vodka represents his beloved status on the Bellarine Peninsula. The tongue in cheek packaging creates many conversations at the bar.
