Description:
Rare Triple-Distilled Tasmanian Single Pot Still Whiskey
This is one of the two casks that went into the new “Martin Brereton” release from Transportation whiskey (that we also have available in limited quantities). Owner and distiller, John Halton comments: “I’ve never released these separate deconstructed bottles of a whiskey before. They are extremely limited to just 26 bottles of each component”.

Discover this exceptional, 3-year-old second-fill bourbon barrel matured Single Pot Still whiskey. Crafted to showcase the perfect balance of flavours through Transportation’s signature triple-distilled pot still process. The whiskey is non-chill-filtered, preserving its rich complexity and depth with no artificial colouring.

With a limited yield of only 26 bottles, we now offer the final remaining stock, exclusive to The Old Barrelhouse. Secure a bottle before our supply is permanently depleted, because once they’re gone, they’re gone for good.

John Halton comments.
“This is a very special release named after Silver Hill in Cygnet. My great, great grandfather was one of the pioneers of Cygnet and they named Silver Hill after the Silvermine Mountains in Tipperary, the county where he was born. I find these connections that people made between their motherland and the place they ended up a wonderful part of history. And I like to think the little hill must have brought some nice memories of the big mountains back at home.”
