Tasting Notes

Nose

A tantalising tension between sweet and savoury. Transports you to a carpenter’s workshop by the coast with the aroma of vanilla eclairs and sherbet. A second pass continues with sun-dried apricots, muesli and rice pudding. Time in the glass reveals cola, creaming soda and toffee.

Palate

Peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce.

Finish

A subtle combination of caraway seed with sweet spices. A hint of salinity balances the sweetness.

Local & Ethically Sourced Ingredients

To create this truly unique whisky, we selectively sourced rare malted rye and the finest malted barley from progressive malt houses, paired them with virgin American oak casks air-dried for 36 months and let it all mature in the maritime air of coastal Sydney.

Australian Rye Malt
Origin: Victoria

A regional rye grain grown in the south-eastern states of Australia which is then sprouted and dried to lend complexity and refinement to the whisky, while showcasing flavours of ripe stone fruits.

Pale Malt
Origin: La Trobe, Victoria

Our pale malt speaks to the Australian land where it was grown, delivering tropical fruit flavours with floral overtones.

Virgin American Oak
Origin: United States

Virgin American Oak is renowned for imparting high levels of vanilla, sweet spices and coconut. The oak in these casks is air-dried then toasted and charred for us to help create our signature flavour profile.
