Description
Co-created by one of Scotland’s most awarded Master Distillers, Jim McEwan (of Bowmore, Bruichladdich and Ardnahoe fame) and Cape Byron Distillery Co-founder and distiller Eddie Brook, this Australian adaptation of a classic Scottish whisky is truly remarkable and unique to the terroir of the Byron Bay region.

Aged in 200 and 300 litre Chardonnay casks, it’s a crisp and gentle, refined with a deep hue influenced from Australian chardonnay casks with natural colour and non-chill-filtration. Cape Byron’s releases have proven extremely popular, released to rave reviews when Eddie and Jim launched their whisky at sold out events all over Australia in 2022.

Co-founder and Distiller Eddie Brooks comments;
“Our whisky lives and breathes the conditions of the dense subtropical rainforest here in the hinterland of Byron Bay. Our barrels have lay wait within the rainforest and take in all of the elements throughout their maturation. We have something here that is really unique”.

Please note: The boxes are very, very thin and fragile so slight tearing/creasing may be visible on occasion.
