Loaded Barrel Small Batch Series Wheat & Single Malt Australian Whisky (500ml)

What some might call a double-malt, this limited release forms part of the distillery's new Small Batch Series. Contrasting deep virgin-oak driven flavour with the fruitiness of malted wheat and barley, the style bridges the bourbon and single malt category; sweet and soft like classic wheated styles (think Weller), but heavier and richer with the malt adding body and texture, it’s hard to tell where the grains end and the oak begins. Creamy flavours of muesli, vanilla, sticky date and milk chocolate are beautifully meshed alongside budding fruitiness. If you're looking for a delicious, seductive end-of-the-night sipper, this ticks all the boxes, however it's best over ice or left uncut. Minimal dilution quickly thins out the flavours. Batch No. 001 weighs in at 46.2% Alc./Vol.

Notes from the producers... On the nose it’s vanilla, and banana. On the tongue it’s orchard fruits, followed by hint of banana again, all wrapped in our signature virgin American oak flavours - toffee and vanilla bean.
