Bottling Notes

The award-winning River’s End whisky was originally designated as a small run cellar door only batch not for general distribution, but then it won Best International Whisky at the latest ADI awards in Oregon, USA in 2018 and the rest folks, is history! 😉

It’s an un-peated single malt that gets its sweet and salty characteristics from the former Seppeltsfield port barrels and the maritime environment created by the river and nearby Southern Ocean from where it matures. Unlike other Fleurieu whisky releases, River’s End never had a story card included in its packaging. While their other whisky expressions had stories to tell at the beginning, the River’s End story has only just begun.

With an ABV of 53%, only 200 bottles were released making this one hell of a rare whisky from Gareth Andrews and his team who are distilling and maturing some spectacular whiskies in their wharf-side production facility on the River Murray in South Australia.
