Congratulations to Dark Valley who were announced INDEPENDENT BOTTLER OF THE YEAR in the Non-Scotch category at the 2019 Independent Bottlers Challenge in the class that included Australia, India, Japan, Taiwanese and other European whisky. Great work team!
This time around, bottler Alex Moores and his brain trust have come up with another wonderful whisky, paying tribute to the arrogant, male peacocks that flaunt their wares down Cataract Gorge in northern Tasmania. Like Lords ruling over their fiefdoms, they fan their tails with passionate audacity, making it fitting that a whisky with aromas and flavours as complex as all the colours in the peacock’s feather be dedicated to this feathered fiend.

Producer’s tasting notes.
Powerful sherry sweetness and fruit cake with brandy butter fill the nose, with burnt-sugar toffee banana-bread and roasted nuts covering the palate with a creamy mouthfeel and long finish.
