Producer’s tasting notes
NOSE: Lots of banana cream pie, baked peaches, dried apple and ripe pineapples, along with vanilla bean, bay leaf, sweet malt, fine leather and an elegant floral note.
PALATE: Rich, sweet fruit fills the palate. Toffee apples, candied citrus peel and ripe plums mingle with the honey-driven mid palate, while dark chocolate and beeswax bring an earthy element to the mix, as well a touch of bright eucalyptus and mint. Beautiful smooth texture.
FINISH: The bright tropical fruits are followed by the earthier notes of malt grain, cocoa, mixed nuts and vanilla. A luscious, mouth-coating texture drives the finish on to Nana’s scones fresh from the over with jam and thick cream.

Bottling Notes
As part of of Sullivans Cove 25th anniversary celebrations this year (2019), the good folks at the distillery have crafted this limited edition of Double Cask. The DC100 is made up of some of their very oldest casks – and therefore some of the oldest whiskies in Australia.
For this batch they’ve married several 18-year-old American oak ex-bourbon casks with two eleven-year-old French oak ex-tawny casks. The result is a whisky of incredible depth and texture due to the considerable age of the American oak casks, lifted by the bright sweetness of the French oak.
Presented in a handmade solid oak box and bottled at 47.4% ABV, this unique whisky is a piece of Sullivans Cove history never to be repeated.
