Old & rare depth for fruity pride, this vibrant vatting is a must-own, radiating Tasmania’s whisky legacy.

Sullivans Cove French Oak TD0290 is a Tasmanian single malt whisky crafted in small batches at the distillery in Hobart. Using traditional methods and 100% Tasmanian ingredients, the distillery produces this single cask expression with a focus on precision, balance, and clarity.


French Oak Tawny Cask Influence

To shape this release, the distillery team matured the whisky in a high-quality French oak Tawny cask. Tawny, an Australian fortified wine style, contributes depth and structure while allowing the spirit’s character to remain clearly defined.

The cask introduces notes of dark chocolate, dried fruit, and measured oak spice. Rather than overpowering the whisky, the French oak supports a composed and layered profile that evolves gradually in the glass.


Single Cask Character

Each French oak cask develops its own identity over time. In TD0290, the interaction between spirit, oak, and Tasmania’s cool maritime climate creates a distinctive expression that cannot be replicated.

Because this whisky comes from a single cask, the release yields only a limited number of bottles. As a result, each bottle represents a specific moment in Sullivans Cove’s ongoing French oak maturation journey.
