Candle-Lit Tour of Ladies Cottage + Distillery Tour & Tasting

Candle-Lit Tour of Ladies Cottage + Distillery Tour & Tasting Step into a powerful, atmospheric evening. We’re opening the historic Ladies Cottage Asylum at Willow Court, New Norfolk, for an exclusive candle-lit tour. Begin with a welcome drink and nibbles inside the Cottage, then move through the corridors by flickering candlelight and feel the weight of its layered history — a rare opportunity to walk these spaces in warm flickering light. Pass the original heavy doors with their looking holes — once used by residents to peer out and nurses to watch in — stark reminders of the building’s institutional past. Guided by our expert storyteller, continue to the former Willow Court Industrial Therapy Building, now home to the award-winning New Norfolk Distillery. Enjoy a special twilight tour of the distillery followed by a full tasting of their exceptional, award-winning rums — bold, dark and unforgettable. And of course…the bar will stay open for you to stay longer. An immersive evening that blends history, intensity, and Tasmania’s finest spirits.
