Introducing Fire Trail No.151
Your journey into our new Signature Collection starts with Fire Trail. This Single Malt is the essence of our house style – bold, vibrant and unmistakably Tasmanian.
Aged in rare Port and Sherry casks, this is a Single Malt built on the foundations of silky complexity and flavour-forward depth.
Vibrant citrus melds into baked fruit and burnt caramel, with applewood smoked water bringing a welcoming savoury balance – fading into subtle wisps of cedarwood. An enticing, approachable expression that captures the essence of what drives everything we do.
Crafted from our island home
Our House Style
Characterised by its rich fortified depth, offering layers of silky complexity, with sweetness and New World fusion umami. You’ll discover the most common flavour notes are mocha, baked orchard fruit and wisps of light umami smoke, all coming together to deliver a rich and balanced finish.
Our team of Whisky Makers taste the spirit up to 70 times throughout the whisky-making process. We mature in rare, fortified wine casks from Seppeltsfield Wines in the Barossa Valley – some with over 100 years of liquid history. We use a bespoke cask seasoning program built on PX, Tawny and Muscadelle. We expose our fermentation tanks to the wild micro-organisms of the Tasmanian air.
We smoke our water with local apple wood. We mine our own peat from Tasmania’s Central Highlands. None of this happens by accident. It happens because Chris and the team are relentlessly committed to getting it right.
An Overview
Built on the foundations of silky complexity and flavour-forward depth. Aged in rare Port and Sherry casks, finished in ex-Bourbon and American Oak wine casks.
On the nose you'll experience baked pears infused with golden caramel, vibrant citrus, and a delicate wisp of cedarwood. On the palate chocolate ganache over stewed mulberries seamlessly layer with vanilla custard and succulent apricot compote. A finish of dark cocoa-kissed hazelnuts meet velvety coconut cream, while luscious sultanas mingle with bush honey.
