If you want to add some extra local flavour to your drinks – why not try a local Brisbane brand? Idle hour is a Brisbane vodka brand that started during the Covid 19 lockdown. The key message of the brand is to ‘waste time well’, live in the moment and celebrate the small pleasures in life. “We could see Aussies turning to well-made local spirits – we wanted to introduce our rye vodka and offer something special in those dire times says Co-Founder and Director, Ewen Pettit.
Idle Hour rye vodka is hand made from locally sourced ingredients playing true to the brand’s core values of supporting local.“It was important for us to give back to the community” Pettit continues. “We sought to drive growth in our own state, selecting 100 retailers to stock Idle Hour before we crossed state lines”
