Lark Tasmanian Peated 50cl

46%| 50cl | Australian Whisky | Single Malt | Tasmania

Born from fire and fervour, Tasmanian Peated shows that where there’s smoke, there’s feeling. Made on the island’s own peat bog and post malt smoking process, this is a lightly peated whisky for a bold palate. This single malt whisky in The LARK Signature Collection is signed by Master Blender Chris Thomson, representing his mark on the new world of whisky.

Post malt smoking is quite unique in the whisky world. Traditionally the barley is kiln dried after the malting process. Lark’s barley arrives at its Tasmanian distillery already malted, so ours is a process of post malt smoking. They smoke two tonnes of malted barley with 100kg of their very own peat over an extended period. This style of peat smoked barley imparts a different flavour profile than traditionally peated whisky. Expect more chocolate and earthy roasted coffee notes to come through.​
