Timboon Railway Shed Distillery

One of the main reasons to stop at TImboon is this historic railway shed that's been converted into a vibrant whisky distillery and cafe. Inspired by Timboon's illegal 19th-century whisky trade, it produces three award-winning single malts on-site. Watch the distillery process, sample single malts (tastings $10) and flavored liquors, and nab some keepsakes. The restaurant's big on local produce and does sharing plates (from $20) to enjoy on its deck.

For those really into their whisky, check the Facebook page for monthly events held in the distillery's "bond store," which for $59 include a walk and talk with the distiller, whisky tastings and a produce platter.

For cyclists, it's conveniently located on the Camperdown–Timboon Rail Trail.
