Why Choose Sullivans Cove 16 Year Old American Oak TD0066?

This Old & Rare single cask offers a rare chance to experience the unique harmony of Sullivans Cove’s spirit after extended maturation. Second-fill American oak casks have been with the distillery since the 1990s, seasoned only by previous Sullivans Cove whisky. This results in a whisky that celebrates the distillery’s character rather than overwhelming it with oak or pre-fill influence. TD0066 is a collector’s piece and a whisky of remarkable finesse, representing the pinnacle of Tasmanian craftsmanship.
