Official tasting notes:
The colour of a Byron Bay sunset. The palate offers soft vanilla, creme brulee and biscotti characters, layered over distinct notes of pear, coconut and buttery macadamia.

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 bourbon casks, its whisky done right, straight off the bat with natural colour and non-chill-filtration.
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”.
Cape Byron’s inaugural releases have proven extremely popular, released to rave reviews as Eddie and Jim launched their whisky at sold out events all over Australia.
