Our Story
Best told with whisky.
A father and son duo.
Founded by the Saar family in Melbourne, Australia, Malt & Brew is operated by father and son duo Yftach and Thomas. What began as a small project during the COVID-19 lockdowns of 2020 quickly developed into the business you see today, with unique glasses and barware accessories sent to thousands of homes across Australia.
Our business is built around a few key values: to provide good quality products and good quality service, and to respect our customers and the planet. We use paper-based packaging and low-emission freight to reduce our footprint. You can read more about our goals on our sustainability page.
Quality
Quality matters.
Just okay is not enough. We strive to create a compelling and unique product, manufactured to the highest of standards. That means working closely with our manufacturers and team to provide not only the best value, but also a customer experience to match.
Respect
Respect for everyone.
For you, for our staff, for all partners and for the environment. Kindness, respect and understanding are core pillars to developing a successful business and we hold ourselves to high expectations and standards.
Authenticity
Aussie authenticity.
We are a family-owned, Aussie business. With that comes the responsibility of offering an authentic experience that Aussies expect. That means you can expect us to be transparent, to communicate clearly and always find ways to improve.
Sustainability
Sustainable practice.
We care and we know you do too. We do what we can to help mitigate our carbon footprint. From plastic free packaging to responsible recycling. Every step we take is one towards a better, more sustainable future.

Malt & Brew prides itself on being a brand that values quality over quantity. We understand that the success of a glassware brand is highly dependent on the quality of its products, and therefore, we have taken great care to ensure that all our manufacturing is done in small-scale batches.
Like a lot of things, our glasses are made in China — but nearly all our products are blown by hand in a single factory. This gives us control over the quality and features of the glassware. We've worked hard with our skilled artisans to ensure every glass feels good to hold and good to drink from.
Glasses with Personality.
Whisky lovers know that it can be hard to find the right glass. Rather than repeating the same, tired designs, our glasses have something to say. A glass with style is the only way to do justice to a good drink.
Our customers
Don't listen to us — listen to them. We work hard to provide an excellent experience to all of our customers to get great glassware to their homes, offices, bars, and restaurants.
An Industry Favourite
