Description:
Here’s a super-rare treat from Dark Valley that see’s founder Alex Moores using new-make spirit from Killara Distillery in Richmond Tasmania and ageing the translucent elixir in a high-quality, ex-rum cask for 3 years and 5 months. Bottled at a mighty cask strength of 68% alc, it’s the perfect example of what Killara spirit can do when given the perfect wood selection and environment.
Pirate’s Map is rich and malty, with just the right amount of rum esters that will have even the most staunch rum aficionados leaping for another sip.
Dark Valley comments on this release:
“The infamy of ye olde pirates is a wonder to children and adults alike. Sailing the seven seas under dreaded black flags, these industrious privateers wreaked havoc as they collected bounty by dastardly means. Not risking all that treasure being lost to a sinking, these buccaneers would bury the loot for future extraction. A whisky to make you sing a shanty and reminisce of simple treasures.
