This week marks the launch of an exciting new initiative celebrating Queensland’s vibrant distilling industry.
Through collaboration with the Queensland Distillers Association and with the support of the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly, Mr Pat Weir MP, Lucinda Bar and Strangers’ Restaurant have proudly transformed their spirit offering to focus exclusively on locally made products. This new approach shines a spotlight on the state’s exceptional distillers and craft producers.
