Fleureiu
Tasting Notes
That Boutique-y Whisky Company has outdone themselves with their second batch of Fleurieu 3 Year Old single malt. This Australian gem boasts a captivating aroma that tantalizes the senses with notes of juicy stone fruits, caramelized nuts, and a hint of medicinal peat smoke that adds an intriguing depth. On the palate, it's a decadent treat, offering a luscious medley of sticky sweet raisins, dates, and fig rolls, complemented by nutty malt undertones. A touch of salinity emerges, providing a delightful savoury balance to the sweetness. The finish is a lingering embrace of oaken spice and coastal smoke, backed by dense toffee and dried fruit flavours that linger pleasantly on the palate. Matured in Apera wine casks, this peated single malt showcases the expertise of the ex-brewer husband and wife duo behind Fleurieu, who employ an eight-day fermentation with brewer's yeast, imparting a unique character to this exceptional Australian whisky.
