A real privilege to try these two whiskies, side by side. Two of the oldest whiskies ever produced in Australia, one a vatted expression, the other from a single ex-Bourbon cask.
The vatted whisky, released for Sullivans Cove’s 25th anniversary, had rich fruit characters, spice and heavy, but well integrated oak.
The single cask was just released this week and a more floral profile balanced with mineral and flinty characters.
Both were outstanding, but it was the Single Cask that did it for me. Congratulations to anyone that got a bottle and to Sullivans Cove on this remarkable achievement.
