While the whisky scene has grown and evolved over the last 20 years, so too has Lark Cask Strength. From the early Single Cask releases, winning World's Best in 2009 and 2012 at the World and Chicago International Whisky Awards respectively, and then on to the move from Single Cask releases into increasingly larger marriages of casks, the Lark team has always sought to over deliver on the quality of the liquid they produce. Nowadays we’re so fortunate to see Lark Cask Strength on shelves all around the country with its delicious rich malty notes on top of candied orange and dried fruits.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eFor this special Club Exclusive, one of the best whisky makers in Australia, Head Distiller Chris Thomson, has done something Lark’s never done before - taken the award-winning Port matured Classic Cask Strength and then treated it to finishing in rich old 300L Seppeltsfield Pedro Ximénez Hogsheads that had held Pedro Ximénez for multiple decades deep in the cellars of one of the Barossa Valley’s oldest vineyards.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eThese Pedro Ximénez casks arrived at Lark having been decanted just days before, and still contained the thick sticky residue of the fortified wine stuck to the insides of the casks. They were then promptly filled and left in Lark’s tin shed bond stores, well renowned for producing some of the top whisky in the world.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eFinishing in the 300L Pedro Ximénez hogsheads has created a mind-blowingly big and supremely juicy single malt that’s absolutely dripping with luscious jammy notes and layers of fig, apricot, and crème brûlée. Fresh off Lark's Gold medal wins for other Seppeltsfield fortified finishes in Muscat (96 points) Sherry (95 Points) at the most recent IWSC (International Wine \u0026amp; Spirits Competition), this PX Sherry finish is the cherry on top and takes Lark to another level being Cask Strength at 58.0% ABV, non-chill filtered and natural colour.

When Bruichladdich Distillery was purchased by Mark Rainer (of wine fame) in 2000, he managed to convince revered Master Distiller Jim McEwan to join him, and then let him loose on the influence of what Bruichladdich was going to become.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eJim quickly set out to establish a heavily peated line as Bruichladdich was well known for being predominantly an unpeated whisky. Unfortunately, with the local Port Ellen Maltings already running at capacity, he had to go across to mainland Scotland to find a malting house to produce his peated whisky. He ended teaming up with Bairds Maltings in Inverness.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhile most malting houses will add peat influence after the drying process by lighting a peat fire in a kiln under the barley and imparting the smoke for a few hours, Bairds had a special malting facility which included Saladin boxes. This enabled them to use peat as part the drying process, which lasts two days. The peat levels would get so high that they would cut the super heavily peated barley back with unpeated barley to achieve the correct specs of ‘ppm’ (parts per million) that the distillery would require. It was during this process that Jim McEwan questioned how high they could get the peat levels.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAlways willing to experiment, Bairds cranked the peat fires up and imparted maximum smoke influence on the barley. In doing so, each run of barley through the Saladin boxes will be slightly different in ppm. This gives each release a different level of smokiness imparted in the barley.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe result is what you see in the sleek black bottles today. Every year, Bruichladdich only distil super heavily peated barley for less than two weeks to put aside for the Octomore range.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eMade with 100% Scottish grown Concerto barley, peated to a ‘sessionable’ 129.7ppm and distilled in 2015, Octomore 12.2 spent three and a half years in American oak casks, before being moved to incredibly rare Sauternes casks for an extra 18 months. Sauternes, a French dessert wine made from rare white grapes from Bordeaux, is renowned for its remarkable balance between sweetness and tartness and adds a supercharged sweet complexity to this flat-out smouldering smoky malt. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis particular release was created in homage to the now legendary and extremely sought after Octomore 4.2 Comus which was finished in the famed Chateau d’Yquem Sauternes casks. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBottled at 57.3% ABV, you can expect to encounter smouldering peat and ripe, supercharged fruits like melon, white peach, and juicy nectarine, before winding up with honeysuckle and coconut adding a real twist amongst the heavy peat phenols.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOrders for Octomore 12.2 have now closed. \u003ca href=\"#\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSign Up Free\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e now to get your hands on our upcoming releases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bruichladdich Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46489946226767,"sku":"WC0220","price":275.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/1185\/7487\/files\/octomore122_pdp_main_1.png?v=1787701213"},{"product_id":"bushmills-2011-banyuls-cask","title":"Bushmills 2011 Banyuls Cask","description":"\u003cp\u003eComing in at natural cask strength and finished in fresh French Banyuls casks, is the much-awaited next instalment of the Causeway Collection from Old \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bushmills\"\u003eBushmills\u003c\/a\u003e Distillery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery drop of Bushmills Single Malt starts with pure water that’s run through basalt rock - the very rock that the Giant’s Causeway is made from - and mixed with malted barley that’s only grown in Ireland.
