The Lark story is not so much about the distillery but the man behind he distillery and for that matter behind the seed of Australian Whisky distilling as we know it today. Bill Lark realised that that everything you need for a world-class whisky was in Tasmania – rich fields of barley, an abundance of wonderfully pure soft water, highland peat bogs, and the perfect climate to bring all the ingredients together in a marriage of science, art and passion. The vision of producing Tasmanian malt whisky was born on a trout fishing trip in the highlands of Tasmania. Bill’s father in-law Max produced a wonderful bottle of single malt, and as they enjoyed a drink in the park at Bothwell, surrounded by Georgian buildings, barley fields and the gentle flowing of the Clyde River, Bill remarked to Max, “I wonder why there isn’t anyone making malt whisky in Tasmania”.
Lark Whisky casks were carefully seasoned with handcrafted Coal Valley Chinotto, meticulously distilled, and aged with the same love and patience as the original 2021 Chinotto Release, awarded 95 Points at the International Wine and Spirits Competition. Highland peat marries with bitter sweet citrus cola; it’s a classic flavour with all the romance of southern Italy. Toffee and smoked orange roll off the tongue with every sip, this 2022 Chinotto Release is a vivacious single malt living up to its namesake in every way. Salute!
