A small batch marriage from the Hellyers Road Distillery’s highly regarded 12-year-old American Oak casks and our premium aged 5-year-old Port casks - offering honeycomb, sea salted bread and orange zest with a herbal weave. For fans of the Hellyers Road Original 12-year-old of the past this is the perfect replacement. Mashed, fermented, and bottled on site.
Delicate and complex; Honeycomb and marmalade meld with herbal notes of green leaf and orange blossom for a distinctly sweet and floral Single Malt.
700mL / Bottled at 46.2%abv / Non-Chill filtered / Non Coloured
Nose - Green leaf and honeyed black tea with a hint of orange blossom
Palate - Marmalade and seared winter berries
Finish - Smooth, long with lingering hints of nutmeg
Beautiful flavours, smooth and delicious neat
I originally found Hellyers via a whiskey club, and since then I’ve been buying it directly from the maker. I’m very fond of the double and triple cask, because I like my whiskey smooth. We are heading to Tasmania for Christmas and I look forward to dropping by to visit the makers, and pick up some supplies of course.
This is an outstanding Single Malt , one of the best I’ve tasted in years .
This is a very nice and smooth drop. Not too heavy on the peat and nice gentle malt.
My only negative is it could have done with a little more time in the wine barrels. It’s not as good as smooth as the whisky that was aged in the Pinot barrels you sold last year.
We opened a bottle of the journeyman tonight and it was definitely the best whiskey of the night. Loved the subtle taste sensations, nothing overpowering but compelling enough to have a second glass. I highly recommend to everyone 🥃♥️
