Bar 26’s Eduard Otter Featured in National Spotlight on Australia’s Drinks Industry Pioneers

We’re thrilled to share that Eduard Otter, co-founder of Bar 26 and head distiller at Otter Craft Distilling, has been spotlighted by the Australian Good Food Guide. In the recent article Super Sommeliers and Grape Gurus Spill the Beans on Australia’s Best Lesser-Known Wine Regions, Eduard joins a select group of Australia’s leading wine and spirits experts in highlighting regional excellence across the country.

Known for championing bold flavour and locality, Eduard’s mention is a nod to Bar 26’s commitment to offering a menu that highlights not just our own OCD spirits, but also the best of Australia’s producers. His advocacy for New South Wales’ Riverina region — and the creative freedom that comes from small-batch craft — underscores everything Bar 26 stands for: authenticity, experimentation, and the joy of great drinks.

Come experience what all the buzz is about at Bar 26 in Lilyfield, where you can taste Eduard’s passion by the glass — from our signature cocktails to our rare barrel-aged pours.
