On my trip to New Zealand in July this year, my son and I stayed near Christchurch and while there I stopped by at the lovely Whisky Galore store. They had so many I would have liked to have grabbed however this bottle caught my eye. I grabbed it, had some of it while I was there but couldn’t bring it home to Australia with me, so just brought back a sample. I’d tried and enjoyed the Batch 6 at a Whisky Club night last year…how does the Batch 11 compare?

The Nova is the entry-level Single Malt Ausskey from the Australian Whisky institution that is Starward. It’s a red berry explosion of sorts, and not only do I review this amazing Single Malt, I also review four of the most common cork types. If you like ASMR of opening Whisky bottles, this is your episode to watch!

Starward are a rapidly growing Australian Distillery based in Melbourne and their entry-level Blended Whiskey they call the Two-Fold. In addition to reviewing the Two-Fold, I look at some of Starwards history, how they age their Whisky in so-called Wet Barrels that are ex-Red Wine, predominantly, and I also coin a new expression to rival the slang word, Scotch. Australian Whisky = Ausskey. It’s gonna stick people!

Describing themselves as a true Urban Distillery, the Milk & Honey Distillery is located in the heart of Tel Aviv in Israel. With warehouses in extreme locations including adjacent to the Dead Sea, and their use of STR, Shaved-Toasted-Recharred Casks for maturation, leads to some very interesting Whiskies. Only ten years young this distillery has been punching well above its weight and I’m excited to review their Classic Single Malt to see just how good it really is.

About 20 years ago Kavalan began making Whisky in Taiwan. Since then they’re garnered a cult-like following around the world for their unique take on Whisky. I look at the brief history of the Distillery, and try to figure out what a ‘qualitative cask’ means… Today I’m reviewing the Select No. 1 to see what all the hype is about.
