Para 100 II Rare Cask Release
Whisky 700ml + 100ml
The Rare Cask Series is a celebration of Tasmanian whisky both rich in character and heavy with history. It’s an endless pursuit of the abandoned exceptional — combing countries for casks both rare and remarkable. It’s an exploration of evolution — of new life blossoming within the old, in extraordinary, unmatchable ways. A pursuit for the extraordinary realised through unearthing some of the world’s most rare and storied casks. The resulting expressions are unique single malt celebrations of character, culture and the particular casks in which they are finished.
The Rare Cask Series Para 100 release is our single malt finished in casks that once held 100-year-old Seppeltsfield Para Vintage Tawny.
Your 700mL bottle is accompanied by a copper medallion meticulously handcrafted from a decommissioned Lark copper pot still, and a complimentary 100mL bottle enabling the collector to enjoy and savour now.

Tasting Notes
Nose
Subtle peat gently wafts from the glass as dark red fruits, orange gateau and treacle meld together.
Palate
Grilled pineapple is first to appear on the palate, followed closely by burnt buttered toast, raspberry jam and a hint of sweet spice.
Finish
The linger of ashy peat with oily citrus, sultanas and refined oak magnifies the moment and lengthens the finish.
Character captured through 100 years of history
Century old Seppeltsfield Tawny seasoned casks, the crowning glory to Lark’s iconic single malt whisky.
