Launched at the Australian Distillers 2022 Conference, the Hall of Fame was conceived by the Management Committee to acknowledge and celebrate the significant contributions of members in advancing the growth of the Australian spirits industry.

As we take the opportunity to look back and reflect on all the positive things the industry has achieved since its revitalization we are honoured to induct the founding members of the Australian Distillers Association into the organisation’s Hall of Fame.

The Committee hopes the Hall of Fame will be an achievement members will aspire to, as the industry continues to grow and mature.

Below are our ADA Hall of Fame Legends. You can read about each of their stories.
