Breathe has joined forces with Four Pillars Gin to create a new, immersive gin experience in their birthplace, Healesville.
Born and raised in this stunning part of the Yarra Valley surrounded by mountains, temperate rainforest, oaks, and elms, throughout the design we acknowledge Four Pillars’ origin, their history, and their deep connection to the place where it all began. 100% fossil fuel-free, a commitment to sustainability is honoured with a shift to renewable energy with rooftop solar, and 100% GreenPower.
Made from the same material as the gin stills inside, a stunning copper veil wraps around the distillery working as a natural heat exchanger, creating an iconic entry moment with steam rising from the veil. The expansion delivers a much-needed new production space, outdoor gin garden, tuckshop, dedicated gin shop, custom-built bar, and sensational events space cementing Four Pillars’ firmly on the global distillery destination map.
