This is the sixth release from the (independent bottling) liquid library of Dan Woolley’s extensive, global whisky adventures that was aged at Lord Byron Distillery in Byron Bay. From all around our great country of Australia, spirit has made its way on the highway to Byron Bay to age in the rarest, hand selected oak casks to mature into Highwayman single malt whisky
The is the first straightforward cask release from Highwayman that didn’t need to be finished or given a second maturation. Basically, it was simply perfect on its own. Two French oak 20 litre casks were aged for 3 years and married together after tipping. Unfiltered and bottled at cask strength, each bottle is numbered and signed with handwritten details on the back label. Bottle necks are hand dipped in black wax and presented in a branded bottle bag.
