Dark Valley Farmer’s Plough Adams ex-White Wine Cask Strength – Historic

$695 AUD

70.5%        

500 ml

Bottled by Dark Valley Whisky Company in early 2022 from an Adams Distillery 20 litre ex-White Wine cask to produce only 28 bottles at an ABV of 70.5%.

Farmer’s Plough – Whisky begins with grain, the harvest of barley, and tilling the fields to prepare for the next season.  Farmers are vital to the final product and their labour is so often overlooked in the overall process.  Without the hard work of those in the field, no-one would enjoy the amazing liquid that ends up in glasses all over the world.  A whisky to celebrate the paddock and those who till it.

Indicative Tasting Notes:

Distillery

DARK VALLEY WHISKY COMPANY

Dark Valley Whisky Company was established in 2014 by Alex Moores based on the model of the independent bottlers of Scottish and other world whiskies.

His aim is to bottle all Tasmanian distilleries in a way that showcases the raw and elementary qualities of the different distilleries. He began with three releases featuring whisky distilled at Lark Distillery and the range has since been extended to include Adams, Killara, Launceston, Redlands and Spring Bay.

As at January 2022, Dark Valley has bottled 25 Tasmanian whiskies at cask strength, mostly small runs of about 30 bottles from 20 litre casks.  24 of the 25 expressions have already sold out on the Dark Valley website.

Dark Valley comes from the Gaelic name Glen Dhu, which is the area in Tasmania where Alex grew up and is now the headquarters of Dark Valley Whisky.
