Lark Single Malt Single Cask

In the Glass: Light gold. On the Nose: Wood spice. A sweet brown sugar note with a "breakfast-like" quality. Not quite maple syrup, but you can see it from there. Dried fruit. I haven't ever come across a whisky quite like this, actually. I don't have anything that I can readily compare it to (in a very good way). Taste: Whatever casks these guys are using, they are really doing a fantastic job. There's no age statement on the bottle, but it doesn't taste terribly young. The spirit and the wood arrive hand-in-hand quite slowly, but then turn towards a prolonged, full development. More of that wood spice, leading to a drying finish. Lingering cinnamon and dried fruit notes. Great stuff! Well worth the $25 for the 200ml bottle that I picked up. Hopefully Tasmanian sprits become more common and more affordable here in the States.

I just tried this dram yesterday and I think it's taste it's similar to the Highland malt Scotch. It's fruity and rich bodied. Nice spice and woody. Finish short and dry. It's worth to keep a bottle if you willing to spend $150 for it.

Cask LD 57. Bottled Aug 2008. Amber, great cling. Nose: Sweet. Honey. Toffee. Taste: Nice heat. Silky. Biscuity malty sweetness. Honey and oak. Barley sugar. Intense. Score: 9. Tasted: Jun 2010

A really superlative Scotch. Has to be experienced. One of the better Tasmanians, which set a new standard for Scotch.

Somewhat peaty, punchy finish.

Malt notes and easy to drink
