Oysters and champagne. Name a better duo?

Maybe Richard Cornish and Max Allen.

They’re bringing The True Story of Oysters and Champagne to Itinerant Spirits for one afternoon of freshly shucked oysters, local sparkling, an Itinerant gin cocktail, plenty of laughs and some very good stories along the way.

Come for the oysters. Stay for the bubbles. Leave knowing considerably more about both.

A gathering of spirited locals.

This September, we’re taking the Itinerant journey to North Geelong for the very first Spirited Locals, presented by Vic Distilled.

Bringing together Victorian distillers, hospitality professionals and industry voices, the afternoon is all about celebrating what’s being made right here in our own backyard, with welcome drinks, canapés, a panel discussion, trade tasting and plenty of time to connect over a good pour.

We’ll be joining an incredible line-up of Victorian producers, sharing Itinerant Spirits alongside some of the people shaping our state’s drinks scene.

Monday 21 September | 1–3pm
Anther Distillery, North Geelong

For our fellow hospitality and industry wanderers, RSVP via the link provided by Vic Distilled.

See you on the road.

A story that travelled a long way to get to Ballarat.

On Sunday 4 October, food and wine writers Richard Cornish and Max Allen arrive at Itinerant Spirits with The True Story of Oysters and Champagne.

Part tasting, part history lesson and part very good yarn, this one-off afternoon journeys back to gold-rush Ballarat, when oysters made their way from Port Phillip by horse and dray to feed wealthy miners, accompanied, naturally, by French Champagne.

Along the way, we’ll taste three local sparkling wines, freshly shucked oysters harvested from around the Australian coast and a bespoke Itinerant gin cocktail, while Richard and Max uncover the remarkable story of Australia’s native oyster reefs and Ballarat’s rather extravagant relationship with oysters and bubbles.

The sellout show is making its way to Ballarat for one performance only.
