Established in 1859, the Morris family winery is one of the most acclaimed fortified producers in the world.Craftsmanship in blending, ageing and creating world-class fortified wine has been passed down through six generations of the family, allowing MORRIS to truly master the creation of extraordinary flavour in Australian single malt whisky.The unique and distinctive MORRIS whisky flavour comes from unrivalled access to fortified wine barrels for finishing the whisky, barrels which have held the world’s most highly awarded fortified wines. In 2016, the distillery was built around the original copper still built in the 1930’s and installed at the Morris winery in 1941. Today, they combine decades of tradition, our heritage still and ancient fortified casks with contemporary techniques to create a whisky that is a true expression of time and place.
Morris’s inaugural release of the Morris Tokay Barrel was voted favourite Australian whisky of the year and received a Double Gold at the 2022 San Francisco Worlds Spirits competition and a Master at the Spirits Business Luxury Masters, all in the same year. This second release of Morris Tokay Barrel builds on its predecessor’s success, picking up a Platinum at the USA SIP awards and a Gold at the International Spirits Challenge in 2023.
Made from all Australian local ingredients and aged in predominately French oak ex red wine casks at their regional distillery in Rutherglen Victoria, this unique whisky draws incredible flavour from their family’s own prized fortified barrels. Finished in barrels that have held Morris’s award-winning 15 year old Morris Cellar Reserve Grand Topaque (Tokay) which displays intense flavours of toffee, mocha, and soft caramel with a generous mid palate.
Our Tasting Notes
Nose: Subtle intensity of rich dried orchard fruits, malted butterscotch and burnt toffee pecan.
Palate: The vibrance of fresh fruit, layered with rich flavours of white chocolate creme brulee and a hint of toasted spice.
Finish: Lavish and indulgent, the long finish of vibrant raisin flavours gives way to warm malted honeycomb.
