How it
all started
S.E.A. spirits was born as a joint venture, result of the passion for premium spirits of a Scotsman and Englishman who set up to take an Australian (their 1st brand) international & launch in the U.K.
Michael and James worked together in previous international spirits roles and came to realise they shared the dream of setting up their own alcohol business and made the big jump with both feet in 2018.
Connections had already been built over time when Michael worked with Eddie Brook and both met Jim McEwan in Australia. A couple of years later Eddie and Jim become the co-founders of Cape Byron Distillery in Australia and soon after Brookie’s Gin became the first member of the S.E.A. Spirits brand family.
We’ve built countless relationships and amazing friendships along the way. We value our products and most importantly we value the people we work with. We are proud to be working with amazing brands that share our vision and we look forward to sharing many successful years ahead together. Cheers!
