Description
Pete Bignell not only grows his own rye on the farm but even built his own stills, which are direct fired from used chip fryer oil. This farm distillery is an almost entirely closed loop, with bio-oil being the only input and whisky the only output.
The nose proves immediately that this glass contains a huge, characterful dram. Farmyard aromas introduce rye dough, spiced vanilla, popcorn and warm gingerbread. These flavours are only magnified on the palate with burnt sugar and salted caramel cascading into rye beer, shortbread and clove. Spice lingers on the finish. This is a colossal, intense and unique offering from the distilling folk hero of Tasmania.
