Australian Whisky Journal

Australian whisky lovers, you haven’t seen anything like this before. For the first time, Australian 10-year-old whiskies have ever stood side-by-side as a part of a series. But why is The Australian Decade Series so significant?

This month, we’re celebrating the crème de la crème of local whisky. To be fair, we celebrate Aussie whisky all year round. Put your Aussie whisky knowledge to the test and see how much you know about our local liquid!

Having recently become Australia’s most awarded distillery at 2024’s World Whiskies Awards, Hellyers Road is releasing the best whisky it’s ever crafted – and the world is watching closely.

This month, we’re celebrating all things Aussie whisky as we gear up to send Members the Starward Pedro Ximénez Cask — our latest exclusive release with the pioneers of PX in the Aussie whisky world.

Pour yourself a dram of your favourite local liquid and hear why the country’s very best whisky makers, Bill Lark, Starward’s David Vitale and Morris' Darren Peck, love creating top malts for our Members. 

In one of the fairy-tales of Tasmanian whisky, the Overeem brand makes it's way back to the founding family at the end of June this year. We caught up with founder and one of the leading ladies of Tassie whisky, Jane Overeem, for a quick dram to talk all things whisky.

Lark Distillery’s Craig Johnstone talks cask selection and quality control. 

Here we go with Part 1 of our Insider’s Guide to Distillery Tours. Grab your mates, nominate one as designated driver and load up the Kombi, it’s road trip time!

Australia hasn’t been making whisky for long, but we’ve got to admit, we’ve become rather good at it. 

If there’s one thing guaranteed to get the Aussie whisky world lit up, aside from The Whisky Club’s monthly whisky announcement of course, it’s the news of an impending Starward Projects release.
