A unique exchange of ideas, passion and casks.
Lark Distillery whisky casks were carefully selected by Wolf of the Willows Brewing, decanted, and sent on a journey across the Bass Strait. Filled with the Wolf’s Imperial Johnny Smoked Porter and left to age, they worked their magic before being emptied and returned to Tasmania, to be refilled with Lark single malt whisky.
The result is this Wolf release which sees Lark divert from its standard packaging to produce this visually stunning JSP-influenced single malt whisky that reflects an adventurous and collective journey.
NOSE: A faraway grass fire leads into sweet pineapple and charred lemon. Varnished oak drives into toffee apple with a heavy cocoa chocolate.
PALATE: Liquid lychee paves the way for kiwi fruit and raspberry jubes. The fruits develop into a milky banana milo, brewed over a campfire.
FINISH: Strong American Oak vanilla evolves to honeycomb enveloped by chocolate, which lingers before transforming into dark chocolate with hints of smoke.
Paul James –
Intense biscuit flavours – langues De chat, vanilla,honey and a bucket load of apricot with a sprinkle of pineapple. Long on the tongue this is a single malt for the ages.
