About This Whisky

Sullivans Cove Old & Rare American Oak Second-Fill TD0123 is a single cask Tasmanian single malt whisky matured for 16 years and 10 months. Filled in August 2006 and decanted in June 2023, this 300L American oak second-fill cask yielded just 420 bottles at 47.6% ABV. Richly indulgent yet remarkably refined, the whisky combines the vanilla, caramel, coconut and fruit character associated with Sullivans Cove's long-aged American Oak releases with exceptional texture, complexity and length. Each bottle is presented in a handmade solid oak presentation box and includes a letter of authenticity signed by the Distillery Manager.

Tasting Notes

Nose: An inviting and complex nose with layers of tea leaves, fresh pine, and dried pineapple and apple rings. Delicate hints of timber varnish add depth, while alpine strawberries and a herbal-floral note evoke the elegance of potpourri. Dusty malt and creamy vanilla yoghurt bring warmth, complemented by lemon curd and a touch of brown sugar for sweetness.

Palate: Silky with a delicate grip, this whisky delights with its sweetness and texture. The creamy richness of a mango ice cream bar is paired with toasted coconut, rye bread, roasted sunflower and pumpkin seeds. Melting milk chocolate adds indulgence, while notes of apple, cinnamon, and buttery biscuits elevate the experience. Remarkably delicious and deeply satisfying.

Finish: A beautifully long and evolving finish that begins with mango and strawberry jam before moving into rum balls, coconut, and chocolate. Vibrant notes of kiwi and guava pop through, alongside sweet lychee in syrup. A chewy, buttery texture leads into layers of maple syrup, butterscotch, and toffee, reminiscent of a medley of decadent desserts.
