Whisky Whiskey is a video podcast about my exploration of Whisky in all of its forms.
The sixth and final Cape Byron offering in this week of Byron culminates in a truly outstanding Single Cask offering…the Tawny Cask Single Malt. I also look at some of the requirements for becoming a B-Corp Certified company that Cape Byron worked very hard to achieve. In the end though, what can I say about this Whisky? I love a good Port finish, but is next-level yummy.

The Kinglake Distillery is off-the-grid in rural Victoria and is surrounded by Australian Bushland. This Ausskey has an interesting mash bill, and is predominantly aged in American Oak but also some French Oak ex-Tawny Port barrels, which is unusual for Australian Whiskies and leads to quite an interesting and complex dram.

The disused Corowa Flour Mill was sold for a dollar, transformed into a small craft Distillery with no plans for much expansion, but when their First Drop sold out inside 24 hours their plans were changed. Situated on the banks of the mighty Murray River in New South Wales, the Mad Dog Morgan is matured in Muscat Barrels from the nearby Rutherglen Winery to create something, that’s pretty special.

Another Ausskey with the distillery named after the founders family names’ Gaelic translation, I cover the history of the Distillery, and how the Forge offering is made. Will this be a hail to the Chief kinda Whisky? Let’s find out…

Amrut are a moderate-sized Distillery located in Bangalore in the middle of India. Whilst they import their Peated Malt, they use a blend of that with local malted barley and the result…it quite something. I dive into this interesting Whisky and how Amrut are making waves in the Whisky World.

The Bushmills 10 Year is competitively priced and it’s only a dollar more than the Black Bush I’ve previously reviewed. Beyond reviewing the 10 Year, I also look into some more of Bushmills history, including when their licence was first granted through to their own Steamship and finally I compare the 10 Year with the Black Bush…if I could only buy one, which would I get?
