What it tastes like.

Nosferatu Distillery's Vatted Rye and Corn Whiskey, aged in 'The Eclipsed Barrel' in a long-forgotten Bowen Hills cellar.

Aged for an average of 42 months in French and American oak. The French oak adds sweetness, spice, fruitiness and subtle port-like notes; the heavily toasted American oak contributes vanilla and a touch of smoke.

The corn component is aged for an uninterrupted 5 years and distilled with precision in a direct-fired copper pot. The rye is made with a fusion of column and pot distillation, adding complexity.

Sip neat to find the layers, or pour into a classic Old Fashioned.

500ml / 45% ABV.

About Nosferatu Distillery.

Queensland (Bowen Hills, Brisbane) ·Est. 2018

Nosferatu Distillery is a Brisbane gin and vodka producer founded in May 2018, originally from Melbourne and now operating from Bowen Hills with a vintage caravan as its early-days mascot. The brand draws on the 1922 silent-film adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula — Nosferatu — for its naming and label aesthetic. The current range covers a sequence of botanical-led gins (Mandrake Cucumber & Mint, Blood Orange, Giselle Pavlova, Bunyip Sticky, Dead Dry) and a Vodka, sold across the eastern Australian craft-spirits trade.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Nosferatu Distillery

Queensland (Bowen Hills, Brisbane)

Nosferatu Distillery launched in May 2018, founded by a team whose interests spanned arts and bartending — particularly Pimm's, Campari, and gin. The original operation was Melbourne-based and used a vintage caravan as a mobile cellar door for events; the distillery later migrated north to Bowen Hills in Brisbane, where it now operates with a permanent bar and tasting room. The brand identity riffs on the 1922 German silent film Nosferatu, an unauthorised adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula — every gin is named after a film or literary horror reference.

The current range is gin-led: Mandrake Cucumber & Mint Gin, Blood Orange Gin (the most-recognised release at multiple ABV strengths), Giselle Pavlova Gin (a botanical-floral expression), Bunyip Sticky (a sweetened gin), Dead Dry Gin (the standard London Dry expression), plus a vodka. ABV strengths run from 37.5% to 40.4% across the range. The distillery's brand personality is theatrical and trade-side accessible; the Brisbane bar location pairs the production-side work with direct hospitality.
