Lark Peated Tasmanian Single Malt Whisky (500ml)
Volume: 500ml ABV: 46% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia
The Lark story is not so much about the distillery but the man behind he distillery and for that matter behind the seed of Australian Whisky distilling as we know it today.
Bill Lark realised that that everything you need for a world-class whisky was in Tasmania – rich fields of barley, an abundance of wonderfully pure soft water, highland peat bogs, and the perfect climate to bring all the ingredients together in a marriage of science, art and passion. The vision of producing Tasmanian malt whisky was born on a trout fishing trip in the highlands of Tasmania. Bill’s father in-law Max produced a wonderful bottle of single malt, and as they enjoyed a drink in the park at Bothwell, surrounded by Georgian buildings, barley fields and the gentle flowing of the Clyde River, Bill remarked to Max, “I wonder why there isn’t anyone making malt whisky in Tasmania”.
This is very tasty stuff. Watch out for limited bottling’s.
Lark Tasmanian Peated Single Malt Whisky at 46% ABV is a new addition to the Lark Range. It utilises the island’s own peat bog and post malt smoking process, creating a lightly peated whisky for a bold palate.
Official Tasting Notes
A wonderfully warming drop for the bold palate, where earthy peat and delicate florals transport you to the untamed. A delicately smoky dram to ignite the senses.
