Lark Ruby Abyss No. 285 43.8%

43.8%| 70cl | Australian Whisky | Single Malt

A Single Malt of rare depth, indulgence and elemental balance. Aged in first-fill vintage Seppeltsfield Port and Apera casks, and one of the many casks used is a 100-year-old Australian Port reserve. Dark fruits and caramelised brown sugar lead to silky mocha and finishing with brandy snap sweetness.

Great to see the new expressions of Lark in 70cl not the 50cl bottles.

Tasting notes

NOSE: Steeped pears in aged dessert wine, amber raisins, caramelised Demerara sugar and a whisper of salted macadamia.

PALATE: Lush plum preserve folded through chocolate sauce, with buttery croissant layers and a drift of earthy peat.

FINISH: Deep fortified oak warmth lingers through spiced golden treacle, as candied quince and umami leave a velvety depth.
