Taking inspiration from those great Tennessee Whiskeys and Kentucky Bourbons’, comes Australia’s first version of a sour mash whiskey.
Like the word Champagne, Bourbon is a geographic indicator, so it is called ‘Sour Mash’ whiskey in Australia which refers to the type of grain mashing process. Using a classic grain bill of corn, rye and malted barley, sourced entirely from Western Australia, Limeburners full flavoured sour mash is bursting with tones of vanilla, caramel and hazelnuts.
This mixed grain whiskey is richly textured with elegant spices and fruit with a smooth creamy finish you would expect from the Great Southern Distilling Company. Each barrel is hand bottled and numbered in keeping with the distilleries small batch tradition.
Our Tasting Notes
Nose: Freshly cooked hazelnut cake with creme mousseline and vanilla buttercream. Fragrant morning grass covered in dew with freshly ground Rye and malted barley.
Palate: The nose rallies to the palate giving caramelised hazelnut and vanilla mousse, apple scented tuile with a side of rye crispbread. Freshly cooked porridge drizzled with honey and sprinkles of toasted slithered almonds.
Finish: Vanilla Cremeux, with dustings of cocoa and toffee sweetness. I really love this whiskey.
