The Lark story is not so much about the distillery but the man behind he distillery and for that matter behind the seed of Australian Whisky distilling as we know it today.

Bill Lark realised that that everything you need for a world-class whisky was in Tasmania – rich fields of barley, an abundance of wonderfully pure soft water, highland peat bogs, and the perfect climate to bring all the ingredients together in a marriage of science, art and passion. The vision of producing Tasmanian malt whisky was born on a trout fishing trip in the highlands of Tasmania. Bill’s father in-law Max produced a wonderful bottle of single malt, and as they enjoyed a drink in the park at Bothwell, surrounded by Georgian buildings, barley fields and the gentle flowing of the Clyde River, Bill remarked to Max, “I wonder why there isn’t anyone making malt whisky in Tasmania”.

A Festive Tradition Continues: Lark Christmas Cask 2025: The annual Lark Christmas Cask release is one of the most highly anticipated events in the Australian whisky calendar. Lark Distillery, pioneers of the modern Australian whisky scene, continue this cherished tradition with the exceptional 2025 edition.

This year’s limited edition single malt has been matured in the finest ex-Sherry and ex-Port casks—true to the festive style—before being finished with the addition of specially selected Christmas Pudding botanicals. The spirit is infused with the warm, rich spices and dried fruit notes (like sultanas, figs, and cinnamon) historically soaked in the cask, resulting in a unique, decadent, and deeply comforting whisky.

Bottled at a perfect 43% alc/vol, this whisky offers a velvety, approachable mouthfeel that carries the rich, complex flavour profile beautifully. The Lark Christmas Cask 2025 is a stunning example of modern Australian innovation paired with the richness of classic festive flavours, designed to be the perfect centrepiece for your holiday celebrations.
