Dark Valley Painter’s Brush Belgrove ex-Sherry Cask Strength - Historic

$695 AUD

68.2%

500 ml

Bottled by Dark Valley Whisky Company in mid-2021 from a Belgrove Distillery ex-Sherry cask to produce only 27 individually numbered bottles at an ABV of 68.2%.

Painter’s Brush – an artist takes a blank canvas and creates something complex, detailed and unique.  Similarly, the whisky maker plies their artistry in the stillhouse and the warehouse, conjuring up something amazing from just water, barley and yeast.  Despite the same equipment, ingredients and people being involved in the process, no two casks are the same.  A malt that has been uniquely crafted like a painter creates their masterpiece.

Indicative Tasting Notes:

Raspberry sorbet in a waffle cone, drizzled with spicy raspberry compote.  Light touches of smoke, a slight must and French polish on a vintage card table make for a very refined experience.   (Dark Valley Whisky Company)

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.
