Starward Nova
Special features: This single malt whisky from Melbourne impresses with the use of a specially maltier brewing barley (“Pale Malt”) and maturation in ex-red wine barrels that are only minimally treated. The result is a complex interplay of aromas with a balanced mix of fruitiness, spiciness, and wood influence.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Strong berry notes like blackcurrant and fresh strawberries, complemented by juicy red grapes and a distinctive oak spice.
Palate: A lively combination of cranberries and zesty lemons meets full-bodied chocolate and the taste of ginger cookies, accompanied by gently sweet baking spices.
Finish: Medium length with notes of black pepper, licorice, and a fine hint of red berry fruits.
