THE CHRISTMAS CASK
Celebrate the season with LARK’s festive limited-edition Christmas Cask, a whisky that captures the spirit of togetherness, tradition, and the magic of Christmas in every sip.
Crafted in the heart of Tasmania, this special release is the result of passionate craftsmanship and shared artistry. Aged in a selection of Port, Sherry, and ex-Bourbon casks, then finished in Frogmore Creek’s red wine barrels seasoned with Jean Pascal Bakery’s Fruit Mince Pie jus, it’s a celebration of bold flavours and festive indulgence.
Moments gathered around the table, glasses raised in good company, the joy of sharing something truly special - this is what Christmas Cask was made for. From the first notes of rhubarb pie and brandy-soaked pudding to creamy coconut, marzipan, and spiced gingerbread, it unfolds like a Christmas feast. The finish lingers with fruit mince pie, cinnamon buns, orange frosting and a touch of peanut brittle.
From Tasmania’s wild beauty to your holiday table, this is Christmas in a glass, crafted to be shared, enjoyed, and remembered.
LARK, from Tasmania to your glass - distilled for the moments that matter.

Tasting Notes
The Christmas Cask celebrates the spirit of togetherness and Tasmania’s community coming together. Imparted with the essence of pâtisserie Jean Pascal’s fruit mince pies and Frogmore Creek’s red wine barrels.
Nose
Warm aromas of freshly baked rhubarb pie and rich Christmas pudding, laced with brandy butter. Mulled wine spices rise gently, with a delicate waft of cranberry shortbread crumble.
Palate
Luscious arrival of caramel and creamy coconut, balanced by the gentle spice of gingerbread and the soft, nutty sweetness of marzipan.
Finish
Long and warming, with layers of fruit mince pie and sticky cinnamon buns. Frosted orange cupcakes and a moreish note of peanut brittle.
