Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Warm copper-amber with golden highlights
Nose
Unexpected peat meets Australian wine — gentle smoke, red fruit, cherry, vanilla. Not a heavy peat — more campfire than medicinal. The wine barrel influence softens and integrates the smoke. A unique Australian take on peated whisky
Palate
Medium body. Gentle peat smoke balanced by red wine fruit — cherry, plum, vanilla. Campfire smoke meets Australian terroir. Not trying to be Islay — a distinctly Melbourne interpretation of peat. Smooth and intriguing
Finish
Medium finish. Gentle smoke, red fruit, vanilla. The peat fades gracefully into wine-barrel sweetness. A conversation-starting whisky that challenges peated whisky conventions
