$349COMING SOON
Marking a significant new chapter in our whisky journey, we are proud to unveil our first-ever age-statement release: Single Cask Whisky Batch #3 SM1231 - Six Year Old Single Malt Whisky
This rare single cask of Single Malt Whisky has been matured in an Australian fortified wine (apera) cask for over six years. Hand-selected from thousands of casks for its bold, intense charm, this is also our first age-statement release. Having matured at a later stage than its sibling casks, it highlights the distinctive nature of this particular barrel.
It offers notes of dark chocolate-coated figs, raspberry jam, and pecan pie. The palate reveals flavours of French pastries, maple syrup, and a surprising flourish of floral elements.
Only 130 bottles available.

Local & Ethically Sourced Ingredients
Matured for over 6 years. Australian apera is a fortified wine similar to Spanish sherry. It's used to season American or French Oak casks, offering a flavour profile that's usually made up of nutty and dried fruit notes like figs and prunes.
Our pale malt speaks to the Australian land where it was grown, delivering tropical fruit flavours with floral overtones.
Our local amber malt is made by roasting kilned malt which leads to a drier finish. it offers a light, biscuity flavour and dark reddish brown hues.
Batch roasted to bestow a rich cereal character, this malt delivers notes of pastry and the aroma of caramel fudge.
