Whisky

This is the whisky we all search for. Falling in love with this truly outstanding spirit, Heidi Weitjens labels it proudly as 'Distiller Choice' Tasmanian single malt whisky.

This is a full flavoured stunning whisky is a very special independent bottling release. Supply of this seriously sensational spirit is very limited and the only single cask release of its kind.

The maturation journey of this very special edition three year old whisky, in a rare PX charred 30 litre cask.

When the time is right and the spirit tastes ready, this boutique batch of Tasmanian single malt whisky is carefully decanted out of the barrel after about four years. 

Immediately, without any filtering at all, ten bottles are filled at the casks full strength.  This is not just a whisky, it's a phenomenal experience.  (Call happy Heidi directly to access this exclusive 64% cask strength whisky).

The share that the Angels leave for us, is softened from cask strength with King Island Cloud Juice, (the only bottled rain water company in Australia).

At a generous 54% ABV bottled in King Island Distillery, this selected strength upholds this smooth, seductive sherry cask whisky at its best.

Capturing the true fine spirited characteristics of this exceptional Tasmanian whisky, it is our privilege to introduce it. This wonderful whisky is the people's choice as their now all time favourite, as testified many times by tasters at the distillery door Currie, King Island and Tasmanian Whisky Week.

Enjoy this whisky, while you can still buy it from Heidi at King Island Distillery, you deserve it.

This limited edition small batch whisky, non chill filtered to retain depth of character, for our enjoyment as a true taste sensation. Artfully handcrafted by the multiple award winning Tasmanian single malt whisky specialists the Callington Mill team, made with the best Tasmanian malted barley and love.

Tasting Notes

King Island Distillery hh♡ Distiller Choice Tasmanian Single Malt Whisky 500ml @54% ABV ( ABV variable to suit each single barrel release)

Maturation notes

Three year old whisky, matured in a 30 litre Pedro Ximenez sherry cask, referred to as PX. 

Colour 

Deep burgundy whisky colour, 100% natural from 3 years in the sherry cask.

Nose

The nose is an array of sensational, seductive, noticeably sweet and mouth-watering fragrances. Alluring aromatics of magnificent malt and exotic sherry fruits.

Palate

This whisky is just as enchanting on the tongue. A smooth creamy mouth feel from the PX sherry combination of sweet and subtle smokey toasted oak. Tastes of toffee and caramel in the background savour a long lasting finish.

Finish

It’s not just a whisky, its an exceptional experience. Richness of sherry with gentle layers of sweetness and caramelisation, arousing the taste buds wanting for more. The addition of a couple of drops of rain water opens up the sherry notes and smoothness.
