Overeem Whisky is a producer of Australian whisky,[3] brandy and liqueurs in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia founded as the Old Hobart Distillery by Casey Overeem in 2005,[4] with the first casks filled in 2007. The Old Hobart Distillery was the fourth whisky distillery in Tasmania and is considered one of the founding distilleries of Australian whisky.[5]
History
The distillery was founded during the early days of the Australian craft whisky industry, after Bill Lark of Lark Distillery successfully lobbied the government to change laws preventing whisky distilling outside of large volume companies.[6][7]
