THE CHRISTMAS CASK
The LARK Christmas Cask brings together the finest elements of Tasmanian craftsmanship in a festive celebration of community and tradition. Crafted at our Cambridge distillery, aged in Port, Sherry and some ex-Bourbon casks, finished in Frogmore Creek’s red wine barrels seasoned with Jean Pascal’s mince pie jus, this single malt whisky is a testament to the shared passion and artistry that define Tasmania and the warmth of the season.
Bottling the best of Tasmania, this year’s release is a true celebration of local excellence, crafted in the spirit of sharing.
Capturing the spirit of the season, the Christmas Cask unfolds with notes of orange blossom, honeyglazed walnuts, and a long, satisfying finish of baked pear and rich caramel.
This Christmas, raise a glass to connection, celebration, and Tasmanian craftsmanship.
