Named for the convict-built sandstone homestead at the centre of the Nant estate in Tasmania's Central Highlands, Homestead Reserve departs from Nant's usual single-cask approach. Where most Nant releases are bottled from one cask alone, Homestead is a considered vatting of casks of differing ages, assembled for balance rather than for the character of any one barrel. The result is a single malt that reads as more composed and rounded than Nant's single-cask expressions, without losing the fruit-driven, highland character the distillery is known for. Nant's whisky is no longer in production.Tasting Notes

Nose: Cooked fruits and apple crumble, with maple syrup, date and walnut loaf, and a marmalade note. Peppery, developing into vanilla.

Palate: Medium-bodied, with soft barley malt sweetness, barley sugar, allspice and black pepper, and a trace of freshly ground coffee.

Finish: Long and balanced, closing on marmalade and violets — floral and mouth-watering.

Why Choose Nant The Homestead Reserve

For collectors who want the Nant estate character without the variation of a single-cask bottling, Homestead Reserve is the most approachable entry point into the range. It suits both the seasoned collector adding a discontinued release to the shelf and someone new to Tasmanian whisky looking for a composed, food-friendly dram.
