Nant distillery
Nant Distillery (founded 2007, Tasmania): Nant calls itself the first Tasmanian highland single malt because the distillery is about 300 meters above sea level. However, the whiskey distillery has become much better known due to an inglorious fraud scandal. Numerous barrels sold to investors were not filled and therefore huge sums of money were misappropriated. After years of legal chaos, things seem to be slowly smoothing out. The distillery is now in the hands of Australian Whiskey Holdings. Time will tell whether the distillery can recover from the damage to its image.
