Starward Tawny Fortified Single Cask

Single cask whisky doesn’t hide under a bushel.

This is full cask strength straight from the barrel — and no ordinary barrel. At the end of 2021, Starward were putting together our Whisky of the Month, finished in Tawny Fortified casks.

A couple of barrels stood out from the rest. These were set aside to see what another nine months in the rich South Australian Tawny casks would do.

The result is an absolute rockstar of a dram. It’s a flavoursome whisky that retains all the wonderful complex elements of the original, then ratchets it up to eleven. Darker, more intense. Think rich, chewy caramel, roasted almonds and blackberry jam alongside sun-dried raisins, brown sugar and Black Forest cake.

Let’s not forget that Starward was named Most Awarded Distillery at the prestigious San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2022, the very year this whisky was being lovingly put into bottle. Proudly flying the Australian flag, no less than 12 of their whiskies took out Double Gold at the event. This really is next-level whiskymaking.
