Puss & Mew Distillery
|
Puss & Mew Distillery is a family-owned distillery in Nunawading, Victoria, launched in 2021 by Debra and Brett Clayton following careers in teaching and insurance respectively. The distillery is home to a bar and offers Gin Making Masterclasses, and the Puss & Mew gin range has grown from their Signature Dry Gin to now include Navy Strength, flavoured and barrel-aged editions. The Puss & Mew brand is inspired by the story of Captain Dudley Bradstreet who began covertly selling gin after finding a loophole in the restrictive Gin Act of 1729. Bradstreet hung a sign depicting a Tomcat in his London shop window, with a slot in its mouth for coins and a lead pipe under the cat's paw where the gin would be dispensed. This began to be replicated across London and properties selling gin in this way were known as 'Puss and Mew' houses.

Meet the Makers
"Like all good stories, ours began over a tall glass of gin, shared with friends. This quickly became an addiction. Not to alcohol, but to the art of combining botanicals to craft the perfect sensory experience. So, we left our previous lives to pursue our passion and create something completely bespoke – our very own craft gin." - Debra & Brett Clayton, Founders
