Dark Valley started as an idea in early 2014, Alex Moores recognised the Tasmanian whisky industry was gaining great momentum on the world stage and yet the independent bottling scene for Tasmanian whisky was virtually non-existence. He then decided to forge his own path by maturing and bottling Tasmanian whisky, keeping a keen eye on showcasing the raw and elemental qualities of the different distilleries. There would be no blending or marrying of casks, no added colouring or chill filtration and every effort would be made to only source the very best distillate and impeccable, varietal casks to create Tasmanian whisky of complexity and choice.

Since then, Dark Valley has grown to meet the original dream with dozens of single cask expressions already bottled which are quick to sell out and very much sort after. The brand has also taken the next step in their evolution with the ‘Oblivion’ expression, their first vatted malt that is available thoughout Australia to on premise and specialty retailers.
