Lawrenny Descension Limited Release Tasmanian Single Malt Whisky 500mL

Lawrenny Descension Limited Release Tasmanian Single Malt Whisky has been crafted using local Tasmanian barley along with waters of the upper River Derwent, then placed into 100L ex Port and Bourbon casks to begin its ageing process.

After three years, the whisky was placed into smaller bourbon and port casks, each with specific toasting and charring levels, imparting subtle nuances throughout the profile.

Barrels were rested for a further year to complete maturation before being united together for its final finishing in 10 year old Boal Madeira casks over twelve months. Chosen for their balance of sweetness and acidity, these casks added further complexity to an already multi-layered expression.

"Our intent at Lawrenny has always been to harness the unique elements found across the island state of Tasmania as well our own Estate. These elements, along with our awarded distilling team, have enabled us to develop a whisky that we are confident, will be amongst some of the finest in the world."

The name "Descension" describes the carefully guided maturation journey the whisky has undergone, as it moves through the aging process from larger casks down to smaller casks for a well balanced finish.
