This whisky is phenomenal. It really is. Only 578 bottles made. A combination of Flinders Island coastal peated malt and Scottish peated malt makes up the mash bill in this inimitable whisky. Matured in 50l American Oak ex-Bourbon casks for over 3 years. Briney, warm savoury biscuits on the nose. Bright, but soft on the front palate with barley sugar and a light, melon-y note. Bold and sweet on the finish, earthy peat with hints of floral and medicinal notes. Beautifully balanced, light, salty and moreish. By combining peated malt from Scotland and Flinders Island into our grain bill, we create a whisky that borrows from tradition and evolves into a new form – an antipodean expression of smoke, spice, and sweetness. This style is a nod to the origin of whisky. Classic, bold, iodiney Scottish peat smoke bolsters the front palate of our unique, earthy aromatic flinders peat. A wild union of peated malt from opposite ends of the earth. – Furneaux.
