Okusi Visa Distillery
Home of our premium gin's
Vis was once a forbidden and unknown island in the Adriatic. After the second world war, the island was one of the main Yugoslav military naval bases until the abandoning of the base in 1989. It was only after 1991 that the island opened to foreign visitors. In that way, the island’s natural beauty was left intact, almost preserved and authentic. Behind them they left an impact on the island’s history and its navy did not reclaim most of the facilities with many of the abandoned buildings today being used for civilian purposes. With the 300 litre copper still ready to produce the gin we needed premises to start the art of distillation and with the permission from the town of Vis the opportunity to build our distillery in a part of the former Jugoslavian military base became a reality. A perfect location situated within a 10min walk from the ferry port.
