Description:
Here’s a lightly peated, triple matured release from the whisky library of Dan Woolly where 70 bottles were exclusively bottled for the Barrel and Batch whisky Co-op. Rare and limited, there aren’t many left in the wild so don’t miss this beauty.

Our mates at the Co-op comment;
“We spoke with Dan Woolley many months ago about a working together on a whisky that gave a nod to the Anzacs. His eyes lit up – he had a cask that had pulled double duty ageing rye and then maple syrup that would impart a biscuity, golden syrup sweetness”

“Dan’s peated Highwayman spirit started its aging in multiple 40L first-fill ex-bourbon barrels for just over 2 years before being married together and transferred into a first-fill, full size ex-Heaven Hill bourbon cask for over 7 months. The last unique maturation sees a portion of this liquid finished for nearly 3 months in a 40L ex rye whiskey/maple syrup cask. It has been bottled at cask strength 55% abv and as with all Highwayman products it’s unfiltered and naturally coloured”.
