As Australia’s oldest operating whisky distillery, Hellyers Road have always made all their single malt whisky from scratch – mashing and fermenting Tasmanian malted Barley and have been distilling whisky since 1999 at their distillery on the North West Coast of Tasmania. They're known for continually producing some of Australia’s best single malt whiskies and being a leader in peated whisky expressions. Revered around the world, but always remaining true to sense of place.

From their meticulous approach to selecting only the finest peated barley sourced from Inverness, Scotland, Hellyers Road has cemented its reputation as being Australia’s foremost Peated Whisky producer.

Aged in 200L American Oak ex-Bourbon casks for a minimum of five years, the whisky then sees secondary maturation in French Oak barriques that had Tasmanian Pinot Noir aged in them. This secondary maturation in French Oak ex-Tasmanian Pinot Noir casks adds beautiful red berry notes and a unique Tasmanian influence to this small batch single malt.

With rich and full boasting vibrant notes of raisin toast, stewed fruits and candied orange with a hint of clove, Hellyers Road's signature Double Cask is approachable in style and a whisky you’ll keep coming back for.
