North West Tasmania is the most remote corner of a remote island state off the coast of the most remote inhabited continent. The rich, fertile farmlands give way to the wildest, World Heritage listed, cool temperate forests. The air we, and our whisky, breathe is the purest in the world.
We are so far south as to be bathed in the brilliant spectacle of the polar Southern Lights, Aurora Australis.
This whisky celebrates the fundamental influence of our unique location. It reveals its complexity in shifting layers of aroma and flavour, as vividly as Aurora Australis under which it was distilled and aged.
Nose - Crème brûlée and warm brioche lead the way, followed by buttery shortbread and rich vanilla custard. Hints of gingerbread and delicate florals add balance.
Palate - Lush apricots and ripe peaches swirl in velvety custard, brightened by bursts of pineapple. A lingering sweetness entices another sip.
Finish - A moreish dram with a medium finish and lasting sweetness.
Great everyday drink.
For the price its a great drink.
This is a tasty new drop and very affordable, Hellyers Road is quickly becoming my local replacement when I feel like a flavoursome sipper.
Buy Local be very pleasantly surprised by the great quality!
Excellent drop
