{"product_id":"lark-single-tawny-cask","title":"Lark Single Tawny Cask","description":"\u003cp\u003eWidely regarded as some of the best whisky ever produced in Tasmania, Lark Single Cask showcases the essence of Tasmania’s founding distillery, and we’re honoured to herald the return of the legend with these two superb first-fill Tawny Port casks personally selected for the Club by Head Distiller Chris Thomson, as part of the ongoing collaboration between Australia’s biggest community of whisky lovers and Australia’s founding distillery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut first, we need to rewind the clock a little.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle Cask Lark is the liquid of legends - whisky aficionados are always reflecting on days when the big, bold, oily Single Casks were released. They were so popular that Lark ran short of stock and were not able to keep up with public demand. For nearly two years there was just a trickle of releases coming from Tasmania’s oldest distillery. These were focused on the core range, as Lark entered a phase of wanting to achieve both consistency and quality, moving away from Single Cask releases and into marriages for both their Classic Cask and Cask Strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince then, Single Cask Lark at Cask Strength has been as rare as hens’ teeth, with only one other 100L Tawny Single Cask released at cask strength, and that was back in 2017.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLate in 2020, The Whisky Club had the fun of poking around inside Lark’s bond stores and sampling directly from the casks. It was from here that we found amazing casks that really showcased the pinnacle of Lark at their Coal Valley distillery site. Whisky that had spent its entire life in 100L ex Tawny casks from Seppeltsfield in the Barossa since 2014, made up of 50% lightly peated barley, distilled in the oldest copper pot stills in Tasmania and left to rest among hundreds of other casks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom these, Chris Thomson selected Casks LD1162 and LD1063 to be bottled at natural cask strength, 60.3% and 61.7% ABV. They’re trademark big, oily Lark, just like the Godfather himself designed it. The whisky will take you on a trip down memory lane from the first sip to finish; freshly peeled orange and brown sugar coax the nose while butterscotch and plums settle on the palate, unfolding into a luscious long finish of dark chocolate and buttery oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is straight-up classic Lark, and you won’t find it anywhere else but the Club, so don’t miss your only chance to taste it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrders for Lark Single Tawny Cask have now closed. \u003ca href=\"#\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSign Up Free\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e to Australia's biggest whisky community now to get incredible single malt whiskies delivered straight to your door.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBottle size: 500ml\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lark Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46489940852815,"sku":"WC0206","price":350.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/1185\/7487\/files\/larktawny_pdp_main.png?v=1787701180","url":"https:\/\/thewhiskyclub.com.au\/products\/lark-single-tawny-cask","provider":"The Whisky Club AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
