What makes our Whisky special?

Our whisky stands apart from the rest due to our unique process, all conducted on-site.

Our commitment to quality begins with the selection of premium, sustainably produced small-batch malts as the foundation for our whisky.

Every drop is aged in the finest barrels we can procure, ensuring exceptional flavour profiles. From the moment the grain enters our facility to the bottling of the finished product, including design and marketing, every step occurs under one roof. It's a seamless journey from grain to glass.

Moreover, we take pride in operating one of the most sustainable production facilities in the industry, minimising our carbon footprint at every turn. As a family-owned business, our passion for excellence is infused into every aspect of what we do.

BARLEY SOURCING

We source all of our malt from the Riverina NSW. Using independent and family farmed barley lets us support Australian farmers and give back to rural communities. Our barley is converted into single source malt using some of the most environmentally sustainable practices in the industry. This gives us a strong hold and insight into where our base ingredient comes from. Knowing that the base ingredient is grown responsibly and sustainably assures us that this Australian Single Malt will be there to enjoy for a long time to come. Without the humble barley grain, we’ve got no Single Malt.

PRODUCTION NOTES

Our Whisky comes to you from all under the one roof. Mashed onsite to convert starches in the malt into a sweet wash, this is then fed to our yeast which go about converting all of that sugar. After 5 days of vigorous & excited fermentation, the yeast has done its job and our distillers take the reins, transferring the wash into our 2000L copper pot still. Distillation is the art of separating flavours and aromas and recombining them int the refined spirit. Using a double distillation method gives us more control over the expressive flavours in our base spirit. Delicate biscuit malt flavours sing through with sweet fruity stars provided by our yeast start to show us the fruits of our labours. This is then run through the still until we start to taste a change and slip in that rich flavour we are looking for in our premium whisky, after which our tails cut is made, separating the beautiful Hearts of our whisky from the watery and weak tails. These are collected to remove all of the alcohol from our wash and saved to add into our next batch of single malt. This lets us keep putting a little bit of the last batch into the next to help keep our flavour profile consistent.

BARREL AGING

Once the distillation process is complete and we’ve collected our spirit we move to the next stage of production, the one that contains the most mystery and requires the most patience. Using a blend of American and French oak barrels to condition our whisky lets us capture a wider breadth of flavour and blends more versatility into our spirit. Sourcing our barrels from Australian wine makers across the country was an obvious choice, taking advantage of a much beloved industry in this country and a strong player on the world stage. Red wine barrels add many layers of complexity and depth to our whisky, infusing it with characters we could not have obtained otherwise and deepening the complexity of our spirit. Some barrels having been re-coopered or taken apart, scraped, charred and put back together gives us lush strong oak characters.

BLENDING & BOTTLING

With such a plethora of barrel types at our hand and various ages of whisky to choose from our ability to select certain attributes from each barrel and incorporate them into a blend lets us pull out flavours that would never have shown themselves on their own. Powerful oakness can be tamed with suble malt sweetness while fiery barrels can amplify softer fruity notes. This ensures that every blend will be unique to its own release and showcase a revolving door flavours. With no intense or flavour stripping filtration taking place we are able to showcase our Laguna Single Malt at its peak of flavour and expressiveness.

FAQ

Whisky or Whiskey, what's the difference?

An argument that goes back centuries. Essentially, back in the day Scotts produced Whisky & Irish produced Whiskey.

The names travelled with global migration and hence the Irish took Whiskey to America and the Scotts took Whisky to Australia etc.

As is the way of the world the spelling is now enshrined in legal mythology.
