Flaggerdoot x Starward Whiskey Masterclass at Jackalope Hotel

Overview

Jackalope — the Mornington Peninsula's surreally luxe hotel — has declared Friday, June 13–Sunday, June 15 as Jackalope Weekend. This means three days of drinks, dishes and experiences that will transport you to some other, far-flung reality.

The action kicks off at 6pm on Friday with a Starward whisky tasting beside a roaring bonfire. For a couple of hazy hours, you'll sip your way through several of the South Melbourne distillery's finest drops while watching the sun set over the neighbouring LL vineyard.

Leading the adventure is Tanguy Charbonnet, Jackalope's Food and Beverage Director and top 100 World Class Bartender in 2024–25. Once you've tried all the whisky on the menu, he'll make you two bespoke cocktails.

Tickets for the masterclass are $80 a pop. Keen to stay for a couple of nights and experience Jackalope Weekend in full? All-inclusive packages start at $3,099.
