Age: NAS
Region: Yackandandah, VIC
Cask type: French Oak/American Oak
Bottler: Yack Creek Distillery
Released: December 2019
There’s a new kid on the block from Victoria and they’ve just released their inaugural 1st Batch and 2nd Batch single malt whisky (December 2019).
This First Release was aged in ex red-wine French Oak casks, resized to 80 litres for finishing. The whisky was then transferred to a ex American Oak Bourbon cask and aged for a further 6 months. It’s double distilled, non-chill filtered and created using the soft and pure water sourced from the pristine, Stanley Forest Hills.
The response to this inaugural release has been amazing and we’re down to our last few bottles. And at 700ml, it’s at a fair price point – a win/win in our books.
Our Tasting notes
Nose. Subtle grape juice, tempered oak, distant raisons, with a dark spice tail.
Palate: Immediate sweetness leads to a dry and crisp back-end with a mix of peanuts, some old cheddar and woody notes from the nose.
Finish. Woody and dry with a medium and warming finish.
