In addition, the island has one of the oldest and strictest quarantine programs in the world, ensuring that the barley remains untainted. Once the barley has been harvested, it is malted at the Cascade Brewery by Roger Ibbott, who has over four decades of experience malting barley. The malted barley is then mashed and fermented at Sullivans Cove Distillery using a unique strain of yeast developed specifically for the production of Sullivans Cove Whisky. Then, the wash is twice-distilled through a handmade copper-pot still. \"The real trick is to cut the run short, so that only the sweetest, best flavors and purest alcohol from the heart of the run is captured\"�, says Macguire. It's not the most sensible approach by an accountant's standards, but then it's a good thing that we are not accountants!\"� Following distillation, Sullivans Cove French Oak Single Cask Malt Whisky is matured for twelve years in hand-selected, thirty-year old French oak casks that were previously used to mature port. Sullivans Cove French Oak earned the Gold Medal at the World Whisky Masters, and also earned a score of 96.5 points in Jim Murray's Whisky Bible. In addition, the whisky was named the \"World's Best Single Malt Whisky\" by Whisky Magazine in 2014.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSullivans Cove French Oak Single Cask Malt Whisky Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e Light, fruity aroma with notes of chocolate and cherries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePalate:\u003c\/b\u003e Notes of chocolate, cherries, dried fruits and toffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e A supple, dark finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDistillery Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSituated along the banks of the River Derwent on the island of Tasmania, Sullivans Cove was the site of one of Britain's first penal colonies in Australia. In 1804, at the order of the Governor King of the British settlement of New South Wales, Lt. John Bowen transported some of the most heinous British criminals to Sullivans Cove, which eventually developed into the city of Hobart. Hobart was the perfect penal colony — the area's dense forests required a huge labor force in order to establish a settlement, and its isolation and inaccessibility ensured there was no escape. Today, the island of Tasmania remains of one the most isolated and natural places on earth — approximately 37% of the island is protected as natural reserves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CaskCartel.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39404470861962,"sku":null,"price":23213.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/scf1.jpg?v=1617097585","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/en-dk\/products\/sullivans-cove-french-oak-single-cask-malt-whisky","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
