This whisky is a story of provenance. A single malt shaped by an icon of Australian red wine. Starward Octave Barrels is a new distinctly Australian whisky that celebrates the very best of Australian red wine and whisky craftmanship. When a whisky speaks to Australia’s wine heritage and progressive Australian whisky craft, you know it will be special. Bringing the bold flavour from Yalumba’s old vine Shiraz, Starward Octave Barrels is an intense, deliciously different whisky. This special Starward Projects release has been aged in Yalumba’s The Octavius Shiraz 100L octave-sized barrels. Maturing in these hand-coopered vessels has led to intense interaction between wood and whisky. The elegant flavours of this distinctive Barossa old vine shiraz has left its mark. It’s a full-bodied and plump expression. Aromas of raisin, ripe peach and caramel meld with red and dark forest fruit characters. Toasty oak and marshmallow have been extracted from the oak barrel staves, leaving a long and rich finish.

Three legendary Highland Park Whisky Makers have collaborated in this latest HP limited edition - Gordon Motion, Max McFarlane and John Ramsay.

The trio hand selected three principal cask types to explore the influence of wood and cask seasoning on the flavour and character of our whisky.

First-fill sherry seasoned Spanish oak butts, first-fill sherry seasoned American oak casks and first-fill bourbon barrels and hogsheads were combined and a small number of refill casks added to provide a degree of softness to the whisky’s final flavour. 

The "deep russet coloured spirit is said to have aromas of 'Seville oranges, coriander seeds, crème brûlée, cloudy honey, lightly peated with a hint of rose'. On the palate, it is said to have notes of “orange peel, apricots, cumin, vanilla and light smoke”.

SAMAROLI SPEY
BLENDED MALT SCOTCH WHISKY
BOTTLED IN SCOTLAND IN 2023

Our iteration of this year's Speyside. An elegant and sensual colt within our 2023 stables. A princely efflorescent malt carrying our nose to a whole host of places: the scent is Moorish, Latin perhaps, or rather Byzantine… smacking of the stone walls of Otranto, that bridgehead from Italy and what was left of the Western Empire, to the dazzling Constantinople. And immediately our mind is jolted back to the monasteries of Asia

Minor where myth, faith and search for self began in the mists of time.Then a great vegetable garden lush with plants all destined for the kitchen: aubergine, sweet pepper and mint; now lavender, an unknown number of flowers in full summer, powder and peach. All a prelude to an abundant satiating and fulfilling palate. A rich and dense spirit whose specific gravity is noteworthy. Leaving grooves on our tongue which, as second follows second, are filled with piquant and surprising meaning. We remain seated in a corner of the ballroom as we look on at the glitter of the gowns and envisage nights of passion between whiskies. Thoughts and fears entwine and perhaps darken us a little. Salento is a large herbarium made up of villages at the centre. Around them, the sea.
