A fruity, double-distilled single malt made with Australian barley and craft beer yeast for added flavor. The casks are lightly charred or steamed, sourced from Australian vineyards making excellent shiraz, cabernet and pinot noir. Matured in Melbourne's extremely varied climate for three years.
Nose: Penderyn Portwood reveals sweet aromas of red berries and honey, with a subtle hint of wood. Feel: On the palate, this single malt reveals sweet flavors of cooked fruit, vanilla and caramel, balanced by spicy notes and a light touch of oak. Finish: The finish is long and warm, leaving lingering notes of ripe fruit and dark chocolate.
The casks are re-burned to better transfer their tannins to the whisky, bringing notes of vanilla, caramelized sugar, exotic fruits (mango, kiwi) and peppery notes, giving it great complexity.
Tropical fruits, red apples and fresh red berries.
