It’s official! Chris Hemsworth joins Archie Rose as co-owner to take Australian wh**ky to the world 🥃
Since 2014, our approach has been to create whiskies, gins and other spirits shaped by Australian nature at our distillery in Sydney. We’re beyond proud and excited to announce that Chris Hemsworth has now officially joined founder Will Edwards as a co-owner in the business to take our award-winning Australian grown and made spirits to the world.
In the words of Chris: “I’ve been a fan of Archie Rose for a long time. Wherever I am in the world, tasting an Archie Rose wh**ky immediately transports me right back home, to that
feeling of sitting around a campfire in the Australian bush with my mates. Their ethos of only using Australian grown malts to produce flavour packed whiskies at their Sydney distillery is truly awesome. They’re a brilliant example of what Australia does best, and I can’t wait to share that with the world.”
Archie Rose remains an independent, Australian-owned business—run by Will, with all spirits produced at our Sydney distillery by Master Distiller Dave Withers alongside our 90 strong team. The Archie Rose Bar in Rosebery, Sydney will also remain our brand home and cellar door.
Later this year we’ll be rolling out a range of new products created together with Chris that we can’t wait to share with you.
