Sullivans Cove 2001 Single American Oak Cask 19 Years Old #HH0609

Located on the south-eastern coast of the eponymous island, the Tasmania distillery was established in 1994 and is Australia’s second oldest operational distillery. A settlement at Sullivans Cove began when a group of military personal and convicts arrived on the west bank of the river Derwent in 1804. Having access to such pure water and fertile land, the cove was perfect for whisky production and by 1824 the settlement had sixteen legal distilleries. This was not to last thanks to Governor John Franklin, who barred the act of distillation in 1838 due to his belief that spirits were a bad influence on people. This period of prohibition lasted for over 150 years but finally, in 1994, Patrick Maguire founded Tasmania distillery. He would go on to enjoy great success and receive worldwide praise for his releases which include the now legendary French Oak single cask stock. Maguire eventually sold his distillery in 2016 to a family-owned company led by Adam Sable, the former general manager of Scotland’s Bladnoch distillery. Today the distillery is renamed after its acclaimed Sullivans Cove single malt brand, but also boasts a small profile of various other spirits, including brandy, gin and vodka.

Distilled in May 2001 and bottled in November 2020, this was matured exclusively in American oak cask.
