Starward Wine Cask Malt Whisky

Tasting Notes

"A dry shiraz wine greeting begins this dram, followed by a tingling of vanilla plums, hazelnuts and marzipan. A tingling of cherries dance in the background, elusive yet confident. On the tongue, it turns to dark fruits settled over a chocolate-coffee basin; reeds of licorice drifting lightly at first and then clustering to a new intensity which is sharp and acetonal. It tastes of new Australian-sunned shiraz. An odd hint of pepper and fennel reach out occasionally to caress the cheeks. The finish is enjoyably dry with a warming mouthfeel and the tart Shiraz tones and dark stone-fruits are what you are left tasting. ."
