Fleurieu Distillery - Albatross Single Malt Whisky - South Australia 46% 700ML

Description

The wandering storm bird.

Said to be the souls of lost sailors, these roaming aeronauts glide endlessly over the vast and sometimes inhospitable Southern Ocean.  Seen as an omen of both good luck and bad, these occasional visitors to our shores perfectly embody grace endurance and fragility.

The Fleurieu coast also weathers the wild Southern Ocean. It is here our whisky develops expressive maple and vanilla oak overtones mixed with spicy sea-air aromas.  These elegantly combine to create a smooth bodied character.  The Fleurieu Distillery Single Malt Whisky program carries on its gradual evolution through this continuous release, drawing inspiration from the national and international awards and trophies won over recent years.
