Killara Single Cask KD08 Apera Cask Rum Finish Single Malt Australian Whisky (500mL)
Members
$209.00RRP
$220.00A single barrel whisky which was originally unveiled at the Apple Isle’s Dark Mofo festival. A fascinating offering from this fledgling distillery, the single malt has been matured initially in a 100 litre former Apera fortified wine cask, before a finish of four weeks in Australian rum barrels! This unusual maturation has produced a richly flavoured, sweet and slightly funky Tassie whisky, with a unique flavour profile.
More Details
Killara is a distillery with fantastic pedigree, operated by Kristy Booth-Lark, of the famous Lark family of Australian distillers.
It was Bill Lark who first kick started the Australian whisky renaissance, when he founded Lark Distillery in Tasmania back in 1992. Killara’s name is a knowing nod to this history, having been taken from the street of the first Lark distillery.
Kristy has taken up the mantle – one of very few women in the whisky business to entirely own and operate their own distillery. She has over 18 years of experience in the whisky business, and a first hand knowledge that is second to none in Australia. With such a rich history, Killara’s whisky has a lot to live up to. Lucky, it more than matches expectations, with heaps of character and complexity.

Tasting notes
Nose
Initially, it’s the rum barrel that shows up – with tropical fruits of grilled pineapple and mango taking hold, before aromas of dried fruits, toasted nuts and malt appear.
Taste
More Apera here, with a wave of decadent plums, figs and dried fruit. Nutmeg, vanilla and oak spice emerge later, alongside a little brown sugar sweetness and an extra serve of pineapple.
Finish
Full and long, the Apera cask showing a little tannic and drying, though balanced nicely by rum and raisin ice cream, and a touch of citrus rind.
