Special features: This limited release from Lark was distilled in 2016 and bottled in 2021 at 60.2% alcohol by volume. It was matured in a single barrel (barrel number 1244), from which only 373 bottles were filled. The cask strength and the absence of chill filtration and coloring give this Australian whisky its characteristic intensity and purity.
