Starward Wine Cask Australian Malt Whisky, 70 cl

Recent winner of Best Australian Whisky Innovator and crowned Best Craft Distilled Whisky in the World in 2016, Wine Cask is an impeccable reflection of what whisky can be. This unique expression draws most of its influence from the vibrancy of Australian red wines. For this whisky, Australian red wine barrels have been individually selected and kept exactly as they leave the winery to take advantage of a uniquely Australian red wine profile. The barrels are not charred, to retain the wine to oak character. On the nose, balanced aromas of raisin, banana and a touch of balsamic lead to clove, toffee and nougat. The palate is filled with red berries, hints of cinnamon and a variety of savoury and spice driven notes.###Product DescriptionDavid Vitale, founder, started off with a simple vision; create a uniquely Australian whisky. Born and bred in Melbourne, he was inspired to create a spirit that reflects his home town – from its culture to it’s famed ‘four seasons in a day’ temperature swings. It is a city surrounded by some of Australia’s leading wine regions – all within a day’s drive – and is regarded as the microbrewing capital of Australia.
