Bill Lark founded his distillery in 1992, exactly 150 years after the city of Hobart, in Tasmania, had closed its doors to the last of its distilleries. From its peat bogs to extremely pure water, Tasmania offers perfect conditions to produce a superb whiskey, according to the experts, similar conditions which you can find in the Scottish Highlands.
The idea for the distillery came to Bill for the first time during a particularly profitable trout fishing trip. Today his daughter Kristy took the management of the distillery, which boasts a capacity of 1,800 liters per production unit. Recently one of its single stems (LD39) was chosen as the best Australian whiskey.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
