SULLIVAN'S COVE RARE DOUBLE CASK EDITION TASMANIAN SINGLE MALT WHISKY – LIMITED EDITION

Bottle 682 of 1,309 | 700ml

A highly collectible release from one of Australia's most internationally acclaimed whisky distilleries, this Sullivan's Cove Rare Double Cask Edition is a beautifully composed marriage of mature Tasmanian single malts, showcasing the distillery's renowned expertise in cask selection and blending. Bottled on 31 March 2016, this release is identified as Double Cask No. DC086, with the youngest component distilled on 23 June 2000, resulting in a whisky of impressive maturity and exceptional character. Just 1,309 bottles were produced worldwide, with this offering comprising Bottle No. 682.

Unlike Sullivan's Cove's celebrated single cask bottlings, the Rare Double Cask Edition series combines a carefully selected marriage of exceptional mature casks to create a whisky of remarkable balance, depth and consistency. Each release is crafted to highlight the complementary qualities of multiple barrels while preserving the rich, fruit-forward house style that has earned Sullivan's Cove worldwide recognition. Produced during the distillery's formative years on the international stage, Double Cask DC086 has become an increasingly sought-after release among collectors.

The nose is rich and inviting, revealing aromas of honeycomb, vanilla bean, baked apple and ripe pear, layered with notes of golden toffee, toasted almonds and warm baking spice. The palate is silky and full-bodied, offering generous flavours of salted caramel, dried apricot, malt biscuits, roasted hazelnuts and creamy milk chocolate, balanced by hints of orange zest, cinnamon and polished oak. The finish is long, elegant and warming, lingering with impressions of vanilla fudge, butterscotch, gentle spice and refined oak, delivering a beautifully harmonious conclusion.

With mature spirit dating back to 2000, a limited outturn of just 1,309 bottles, and provenance from one of the world's most awarded whisky producers, this Rare Double Cask Edition DC086 represents an outstanding opportunity for collectors, investors and enthusiasts seeking an increasingly scarce expression from Sullivan's Cove's early Double Cask series.

Offer comprises one 700ml bottle.
