Tasmania-based Lark Distilling Co has released its first blended malt whisky – Symphony No1 – produced with rare notes of pineapple and tropical fruit.

Head distiller and blender Christ Thomson wove Lark Distilling’s casks from its Bothwell distillery and Cambridge distillery to create the malt whisky.

“Symphony No1 isn’t held down by the rules. We’ve crafted a blend purely Made of Tasmania, influenced by the distilleries’ surroundings: fields of barley, soft water, clean air, highland peat bogs, and the perfect climate to bring all the ingredients together,” said Thomson.

“We wanted to create something that would feel relatable and like ‘home’ to anyone who’d experience it. Drink it neat, with ice, in a Highball or an Old Fashioned. It’s an accessible, everyday drop; there’s no other whisky like it.”

Lark Distilling Symphony No1 whisky is now available at the cellar door, online and Dan Murphy’s store for RRP $139.00.
