This is Corowa Distilling Co’s 7th release but the first using the Federation theme.
It’s a nod to Australia’s history and was bottled in honour of John Quick.
John Quick was a Victorian lawyer who proposed a three-step process to achieve a federal constitution at the Corowa Conference in 1983 hence forming the Peoples Federation.
This whisky was first matured in American Oak Bourbon barrels before spending its final months in barrels from Spain that had contained the sweet aged sherry called Pedro Ximenez. Aged for over 2 years, the run yielded 600 bottles at a nicely palatable 46%alc and has the potential to become a real collectable.
