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 in Australia on various spirit brands including Bruichladdich and The Botanist. Through these incredible brands, both met Jim McEwan – the only distiller in the world to win Master Distiller of the year three times and in 2014 was given a Hall of Fame lifetime achievement award! 

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. Throughout the journey, we’ve built countless relationships and amazing friendships along the way. 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!
