    Sullivans Cove French Oak is now the stuff of legend—one of the most sought-after whiskies in the world, and the style that put the Australian whisky industry on the map after winning World’s Best at the World Whiskies Awards in 2014 and again in 2019.

    Each sip reveals new facets, with layers seamlessly transitioning from one to the next and lingering long after. It’s a wild journey, expertly contained by the structure of the oak, demonstrating a true mastery of balance. Upon opening, a sense of depth immediately fills the nostrils with dark fruits and sticky maple syrup, intertwined with dark, heavy honey and dried roses. As you sip, flavours of dates, nutmeg, and tiramisu emerge, followed by zippy citrus and chocolate-powdered wafers that add balance and complexity. So good.

    Aged for 10 years and 10 months in a 225L French oak ex-Tawny cask, single cask TD0402 embodies the classic Sullivans Cove French Oak ex-Tawny style. Bottled unflocked and unfiltered at 47% ABV, this cask yielded just 325 bottles.

    Being matured in French Oak ex-Tawny barrels, this whisky brings together Sullivans Cove Distillery and the powerhouse Australian fortified wine industry, delivering rich flavours of Christmas spice, chocolate, and dark dried fruits. As a single cask bottling, every tiny batch is different, showcasing the unique characteristics of each barrel.

    Tasting notes

    Nose
    Dark Fruits, Sticky Maple, Dried Roses

    As the nose unfolds there are layers of dark fruits and sticky maple syrup, intertwined with dark, heavy honey and the floral scent of dried roses.

    Palate
    Salted Caramel, Blackberry, Apricot Crumble

    The body is full and well-developed, showcasing salted caramel and plum jam alongside the tartness of blackberry and the buttery richness of sweet pastries and apricot crumble.

    Finish
    Toasted Fig, Dark Chocolate, Espresso

    It lingers with the sweetness of quince paste and toasted fig, merging into dark chocolate and espresso.  

    Werther’s Originals and pickled walnuts offer an intriguing juxtaposition of sweet and briny, hinting at the spirit's complexity. Piney aromas and fresh herbs add a fresh twist to a wonderfully decadent dram. - Kent Street Cellars
