Lark Single Cask LDF002 Cask Strength Tasmanian Single Malt Whisky (500ml)

Volume: 500ml           ABV: 62.4%           Age: No Age Statement           Country: Australia

Lark Single Cask LDF002, is a limited release from the wonderful Lark distillery. Bottled at 62.4% ABV, this expression has been matured in 2 ex-port casks for the beginning of its life then switched into a 200 litre Bourbon barrel for finishing.

The labelling clearly states “Aged in Bourbon” which confused me a little. My mind was quickly put to rest by my good friends at Lark. The reasoning behind it was simple.  The bourbon cask truly sings through,  adding creaminess and depth to what the port casks brought to the spirit initially.  LDF002 is the second of Larks wood finishes.  You can tell by the code  LDF (Lark Distillery Finish).

Being a single cask, there are a very limited amount of bottles available out there, 210 bottles to be exact.  Making this an extremely sought after expression from one of Tasmania’s most renowned distilleries.
