A fittingly small distillery located in the Melbourne suburb of Knoxfield, Tiny Bear was founded by Damien Anderson and his wife Amanda. A former high school chemistry teacher, Damien was very familiar with the techniques and methods required to produce delicious spirits.
The Andersons went all-in, selling their home to finance the distillery. Unlike many gin-makers, Tiny Bear produce their own base spirit – a costly and time-consuming process, but one that gives them total control over the quality of their gin.
