Volume: 700ml          ABV: 42.8%          Age: 16 Years Old          Country: Australia

This single malt, single cask whisky has been bottled by the Corowa Distilling Co. but the whisky inside is from The Tasmanian Distillery in Tasmania, better known for producing the brand Sullivans Cove.The label reads ‘The Tasmanian Distillery’ as Sullivans Cove did not want the bottler to use their registered brand on the label. The contents was taken from barrel 91 which was distilled back in the year 2000. After being left to mature for 16 years in American oak ex-bourbon barrels it was chillfiltered and bottled at 42.8% abv, cask strength. The label tells it all and we have chosen this cask out of 3 different single casks, it’s stunning. Matured for the right amount of time and distilled to perfection. Another rare and certainly small batch bottling from this world famous distillery.

Only 97 bottles available.
