Voyager Cask

 

The name Voyager is apt for this special cask release. Crafted at the Distillery on Tasmania’s northwest coast, this single malt was distilled and filled into American Oak casks (from Kentucky) in 2003 where it matured for 16 years. Secondary maturation in a single French Oak cask (used for wine and liqueur maturation) for 3 more years added exceptional character and distinction.

700mL / Bottled at 57%abv / Non Chill filtered - Non Coloured

NOSE - Honey lashed orange Jaffa marry beautifully with Lindt dark chocolate and lemon marmalade on toast – proudly ensconced with a butterscotch cloak. Delicate green apple adds a crisp and floral zest.

PALATE - Caramel quickly comes to the fore with hints of toffee apple and malt chocolate in cameo. Subtle cereal and oak notes provide a deft but delightful undertone. All the nuances of distillation come through elegantly.

FINISH - Warming to the core, this expression is elegant with a smooth and reassuring medium length finish.
