Cask 78.92 Peak sherry (Celebrating the 2025 Australian Malt Whisky Tasting Championship)
At first nosing the Panel detected prunes, plums and various other sticky dark fruits soaking in armagnac. We then felt it developed more towards spicy pumpernickel bread, pumpkinseed oil and heavier notes of camphor. Water brought out salted dark chocolate, hessian and classical sherry aromas of rancio and walnuts. The palate was wonderfully dense and full of old-school sherry characteristics such as sweet plum jam, strawberry wine and walnut oil. A few wee meaty touches also showed through after a while. Water made it wonderfully rich in the mouth, adding notes of beefy gravy, dried cranberries and more preserved dark fruit vibes. This was matured in a bourbon hogshead for five years before being transferred to a first fill Spanish oak oloroso hogshead.
95.105 Into the carpenter’s kitchen (2025 Australian Gathering Cask)
Watching as a distinguished carpenter sprinkled lavender flowers over an apple turnover, we noticed a platter of honeycomb chunks topped with vanilla pods. To taste, we were gifted the texture of runny honey, with flavours of blancmange and freeze-dried strawberries. Water warms the dram. Oven-fresh apple strudel, baked orange and vanilla ice cream with mace and dark cherry jam delighted the nose, while the palate was Belgian fries, truffle mayo and oregano. It had a dry finish. After 11 years in an ex-bourbon barrel, we transferred this to a first fill, heavily toasted, medium charred barrel for the remainder of its maturation.
