Colour Maple Syrup

Nose Opens with citrus, toffee apple, treacle and plum pudding backed up by sweet caramel and balanced oak with just the very faintest hint of sweet Tasmanian peat

Palate Decadently rich, supremely balanced, overflowing with mandarin and ginger syrup cake, nuts and raisins

Finish Long and rewarding with raisins, figs and chocolate, and of course Lark’s signature candied orange peel

Food Match Tasmanian cheeseboard

Overview

This month we’re taking our whisky game all the way to the top with an unprecedented exclusive Club release thanks to something very special that Chris Thomson, Lark Head Distiller, and Bill Lark, the Godfather of Tasmanian whisky have been working on just for us.

The result? A masterpiece from one of Australia’s most respected whisky makers. Lark Head Distiller Chris Thomson hand-selected a combination of 100L ex-Port and ex-Sherry casks, specially chosen to deliver complexity, balance and fruitiness, and using his award-winning blending skills worked with us to accentuate the best part of each cask to create a mouth-watering, bespoke single malt for the Club’s exclusive enjoyment.

The Head Distiller’s Release is decadently rich and supremely balanced opening with citrus, toffee apples, treacle and plum pudding on the Nose, before rising to mandarin and ginger syrup cake, nuts and raisins on the Palate, and a long rewarding Finish with raisins, figs and chocolate… and of course Lark’s signature candied orange peel.

Without question, this is the must-have malt from the birthplace of Tasmanian whisky.

Thanks to the unrivalled buying power of Australia’s biggest Whisky Club it’s coming to our Members at only $135, absolutely incredible value for Lark, or indeed any limited edition Tasmanian single malt.
