Our Story
Established in 2023, The Rare Orchid Distilling Co. is a family owned and run micro distillery located in the beautiful Sunshine Coast hinterland suburb of Landsborough.
Celebrating local ingredients, the creators of The Rare Orchid Distilling Co. gins and vodkas carefully balance the flavours of each bottle to create unique and award winning products. And it’s not just us who agrees, we have been awarded silver medals at the 2024 Australian Gin Awards, with The Still Working Classic Dry Gin winning the ‘2024 Best Classic Dry Gin in QLD’.
In addition to the micro distillery, The Rare Orchid Distilling Co. offers handmade pizza, cheese boards and a selection of local and international beers, cocktails and other beverages. And for the coffee lovers, we are proud to serve one of the best local coffees – Colombian Coffee Co.
We are nestled in a quiet industrial unit next to a nature reserve providing a tranquil setting to relax and enjoy quality food and beverages.
What Our Customers Are Saying
Sharon Tierney2025-02-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Called into Rare Orchid to experience the award winning gin and ended up ordering the pizza as well. Can honestly say it was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever eaten! Jamie is a fabulous host, great atmosphere and intimate dinning space. Only 50 minutes from Brisbane, close to Glass House Mountains and Australia Zoo. Perfect end to a Sunshine Coast day trip. Totally recommend 🌟 Faith Hynoski2025-02-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Since I am not a local, I must admit to thinking that there wasn't much between the Australian Zoo restaurant, Warrior and Brisbane. Yes, I might be showing my ignorance. If you haven't dined at the Warrior restaurant, it is a definite must for your dining bucket list. That said, we woke in need of coffee and stumbled onto The Rare Orchid Distillery. Well, well, well, if it is gin you are after, and who doesn't like a good G&T, then Landsborough is a must visit...only because it happens to house the most divine gin supplier. While we stopped for coffee, the real gem is in the gin. Jamie is a top notch guy and his gin has now taken the top spot on my gin list. If that doesn't convince you to try it, then winning a place on the awards for the best QLD gin should. Thanks for a memorable gin encounter and thanks for the speedy delivery! See you next time we decide to visit QLD. Angela O'Sullivan2025-01-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is a hidden gem on the Sunshine Coast. No detail has been left unattended to. Jamie was a wonderful host and had a variety of gins for us to taste, all of which were delicious. We also had the potato and chorizo pizza which was divine! Highly recommend checking this place out. Trevor Watson2024-12-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. You can really tell James puts a lot of care into every bottle. The Rare Orchid Gin Distillery is worth checking out if you’re a gin fan. I have to say the Pizzas are also wort the visit. john kendall2024-11-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Terrific pizza, lovely gin and super nice people.

Most a-maize-ing pizza ever! 🍕 jesse mcmillan2024-11-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic place! I love gin and Rare Orchid has some of the best I’ve ever had. Even my wife who doesn’t drink gin loved it. On our first visit we left with a bottle of their award winning gin. It’s great that these kind of businesses can be local and we should all support them. Jamie was such a nice guy and very hospitable. Pizza was great. Do yourself a favour and stop by for a gin or two. Tim Garden2024-10-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
