Establishing Brett Steel: A 2015 Independent Bottling Company Producing 12,000L Annually

Establishing Brett Steel: A 2015 Independent Bottling Company Producing 12,000L Annually In this episode, I interview Brett Steel, the Founding Director and General Manager of Spirit Thief Distilling Co, an independent bottling company based in Tasmania, Australia, and was established in 2015. Brett is defined for his passion for brewing and distilling and found an opportunity to work with other distilleries. Spirit Thief transitions from brewing into maturing their own whisky, and now has a variety of casks ready for future releases around the world. For their initial pilot casks, they distilled approximately 120L, grew it every year, and now produce 12,000L annually. Before Spirit Thief, Brett was the founder of Tasmanian Whisky Tours in 2013 which became Drink Tasmania Premium Tours which was then sold in 2019. Brett says that the number one habit a small business owner needs to develop and maintain is discipline and this is the habit he’s still working on every day. Though it is quite challenging, it really helps sustain the business in the long-term duration. This Cast Covers: Providing an overview and knowledge about distilling.
