The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein. Finish: Short to medium length finish that continues being very dry and tannic. It finishes on a note of red Pez candy and grape. The dry, winey forward finish makes you wonder if you have just taken a sip of wine rather than whisky. Other Gold medallists included Forty Creek Barrel Select Whisky, with its notes of chocolate, coconut cream and rice pudding, and Signal Hill Whisky, lauded for its “baked almond cake, peanuts, and custard chocolate cream”. Two Silvers were also awarded.
We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets.By no means bad, but pretty average. I’d be interested to try a longer-aged expression bottled at a higher ABV. Score: 4/10
This award-winning single malt whisky from Oregon’s Westward Whiskey is the whiskey that started the American single malt bandwagon. Made using locally-sourced malted barley and aged in new, charred American oak barrels, in hot dry summers and cold, wet winters, it’s known for its welcoming nose of toasted vanilla beans, butterscotch and spices as well as its palate of malts, buttery caramel, dried cherries, and wintry spices. The finish is a warming mix of chocolate, fresh leather, and gentle spices. If you only try one American-made single malt whiskey, make it this one. There’s a reason it consistently ranks as one of the best single malts in the US. Sullivans Cove Double Cask Tasmanian Single Malt | Image: Dan Murphy’s 10. Sullivans Cove Double Cask Tasmanian Single Malt (Australia) On the nose: immediately this dram strikes with appealing fruit scents like pineapple and banana, then coconut flakes, strawberry bubble gum and lilac. There are no off notes here though time with the dram doesn’t reveal much else. Eventually reveals dark honey and caramel.

Far from stellar. “No va” translates into Spanish as “doesn’t go,” and unfortunately that’s the case with Nova. It doesn’t go to the stars, or anywhere good; it doesn’t really go much of anywhere at all. Nova borrows from tradition but breaks away from it too. This whisky’s distinctly delicious flavour all starts with our new-make spirit.
While Starward might be the most well-known whisky from Mainland Australia, the most popular whisky from Tasmania is Sullivan’s Cove. Makers of many high-quality, noteworthy single malt whiskies, Sullivan’s Cove has won numerous awards for its Double Cask Tasmanian Single Malt. This non-chill filtered winner of the “Best Australian Single Malt” at the 2018 World Whiskies Awards gets its name from being matured in both French and American oak barrels. The result is a bold, rich, memorable sipper with notes of raisins, dried apricots, sweet caramel, maple candy, and toasted vanilla beans. It’s a sweet, fruity dram you won’t soon forget. Concluding the trio was Forest Whisky from Cheshire in the UK. Gorn described it as “rich and sweet with some lovely toffee apples and floral notes” while Neotia enjoyed its “spicy tingle” and finish of “long-baked apple and walnut”. Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products.In my imagination, this was the best of both worlds: novel, but tried-and-true. Starward has the seal of approval from two team members whom I very much respect. At the same time, I don’t see Australian whisky every day. And this one from a wine cask! I am entertained! Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. But enough of that. Leave any gripes about the vacuousness of late capitalism at the calendar door. This isn’t a lament on the state of the modern Western world. I’d take chocolate over chalk every day of the December week.
