Distilled in March 2014 and matured for just over four years in a 100L Port-wood single cask, this limited-edition Tasmanian single malt was bottled in May 2018 at a robust 63% ABV. A total of just 174 bottles were released, making this cask-strength expression a rare and powerful example of Nant’s bold house style.

The whisky delivers rich, port-influenced character with layers of dried fruit, spice, and decadent sweetness—typical of Nant’s small-cask maturation philosophy.

Despite changes in ownership over the years, Nant whiskies continue to be sought after by collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the intensity and richness that small-cask ageing can produce.
