  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
Ten minutes from Melbourne’s CBD, our distillery and whiskies are just as innovative as the city we call home.
We craft our whiskies , right here in Port Melbourne, from local ingredients, mature in barrels from the famed Australian wine regions in our backyard, and harness the infamous Melbourne weather to make a distinctly Australian spirit. We tried something new and never looked back. Of course, we’re still whisky but it is whisky done differently.

    This isn't a restaurant as much as it is a place to try some great whisky. The food menu is limited, but what they do have is VERY good.

    Loved this place. The atmosphere, food, drinks and service were wonderful. Keen to visit after a first time taste of Starward Nova given as a gift – an amazing drop with a unique aroma and flavour. The combined grazing platter was mouth-watering and a perfect accompaniment to our variety of drinks. Vitalis Single Malt is nothing short of spectacular. Couldn't resist finishing off with some brilliant chocolate featuring Nova Whisky soaked sultanas. All in all a truly ‘stellar’ experience at Starward! Very much anticipating our next visit.

    Beautiful venue, excellent whiskey and knowledgeable and friendly staff! Would highly recommend this for any occasion - would be an awesome date idea, bucks night on a Friday/Sat, business meeting place during the week or just to learn more about distilling. The staff were awesome and super friendly, and we learned quiet a bit during our visit :)
