Gin |
It all started having “business meetings” with my best friend on our balcony in Wollongong, NSW. We didn’t have a business. It was just an excuse to have a couple of G&Ts and talk about how we were going to make our millions. I was in the Navy, and was deployed to the Gulf for a rotation. On return, I started watching a lot of youtube videos, and concentrated on learning how things were made. During a “business meeting” while sipping on a G&T, we started discussing how we could make the drink better. So, I got my first still and started experimenting in the spare bathroom of the apartment. After some guidance from the University of YouTube and many, many, mistakes, we made a gin that was okay. I was posted to the West in 2021 to commission a new ship. Steph and I instantly fell in love with Western Australia and decided to set up our life here. When meeting new people I would bring up distilling (I was obsessed by this point). I would get taste notes, recipe suggestions and branding feedback from everyone who was willing to talk about it. After all that development, the feedback was so positive, Steph and I decided to pour our life savings into Billy Stitch and share our creations with the world. Cheers, Dave |

Spirits |
We love spirits. We hate waste. We saw the unlimited potential of unwanted produce. And DGDC was born. Join a movement of people passionate about saving our planet, one sip at a time. We’re on a mission to prove that spirits made with imperfect ingredients don’t have to be anything less than perfect… in fact, as two ex-hospo alums, our palates are finely tuned to seek perfection, so that’s the only thing we’ll accept. We’re not trying to recreate the same spirits you’re used to, though. We’re aiming for even better. Our unique ingredients and innovative distilling techniques create traditional taste profiles, with a delightful twist. And you won’t believe they ever came from waste. We’re all about pushing boundaries, not only with our recipes, but with our operations across the board, including at our close-to-zero-waste distillery. And we’re genuinely passionate about the planet, which makes it all the more satisfying knowing that we are saving produce from landfill, one sip at a time. |
