Single Ex-Pedro Ximénez Spanish Oak Cask

A finite Australian single cask whisky matured in first-fill Spanish oak previously seasoned with Pedro Ximénez sherry, built for density, viscosity and provenance led maturation.

What the critic found

James Phang, Singapore Liquid Gold Club, December 2025: “The palate is drenched in cream, a texture so indulgent it borders on the ethereal, while crisp green apples slice through with precision, lending a refreshing counterpoint.” Read the tasting notes or see the original post on Instagram.

Specification

Australian single cask whisky. First-fill Spanish oak, ex-Pedro Ximénez. Non-chill filtered, natural colour. Sixty bottles worldwide, individually numbered.

Nose

Dark fig, raisin syrup and polished walnut rise immediately from the glass, supported by molasses, espresso crema, cocoa powder and antique oak oils. With aeration, dried orange peel and mature sherried fruit reveal deeper aromatic concentration and cask driven complexity.

Palate

An intensely viscous palate unfolds with date loaf, burnt sugar, dark chocolate and PX richness. Drying Spanish oak tannin provides structure while natural cask strength warmth carries the whisky without excessive heat or cloying sweetness.

Finish

Long, warming and persistent with fading cocoa bitterness, walnut skin, dried orange peel, antique wood oils and structured sherry cask spice.

Maturation

Australia’s climate accelerates oak interaction as the barrel expands and contracts. That movement draws the whisky deeper into the wood, raising extraction, mouthfeel and flavour density while the angel’s share reduces what remains.

Serving

Best experienced neat in a fine tasting glass. It is also structured to carry a Premium Manhattan through PX richness, integrated spice and aromatic depth.
