About 78˚ Native Grain Whiskey
Worlds Best Grain Whiskey at 2021 World Whiskey Awards.
Double Gold 2021 San Fran World Spirits Competition.
The first whiskey in the world to be made using Australian cereal grains, this year’s Native Grain release is truly exceptional, representing a single cask expression of our award winning whiskey – limited to just 300 bottles.
A unique and engaging expression, made from a base of local malted and unmalted barley, along with native Weeping Grass, creating a whiskey unlike any other in terms of taste and character.
78° Native Grain Whiskey was named the winner of Worlds Best Grain Whiskey at the World Whiskies Awards in 2019, and received a coveted Double Gold at the SFWSC in 2021. We have no doubt that this 2023 release will be equally recognised for its high quality, and prized for its unique nature.
Tasting Notes
NOSE
Intense cereal characteristics & apricot kernel from the Weeping Grass mingle with caramel, toffee & toasted malt from the traditional grain.
TASTE
Rich and creamy with beautifully balanced french oak influence. Fresh red berry character. Apricot kernel, stone fruit and spice give way to earthy almost ginger character.
FINISH
Beautiful long finish, including notes of dried apricots and kitchen spice.
