Two Casks. One Bold Tasmanian Expression.

Hellyers Road Double Cask is the kind of whisky that doesn’t whisper — it speaks clearly and confidently with every sip. Hailing from the pristine landscapes of Tasmania, this single malt whisky is crafted using two distinct oak maturations: the robust structure of American Oak and the elegance of French Oak wine casks. Together, they build a flavor profile that’s smooth, deep, and bursting with character.

Each batch begins its journey in ex-bourbon American Oak barrels, where it picks up creamy vanilla, caramel, and gentle oak spice. Then comes the second act — a finish in French Oak red wine barrels that adds layers of red berry richness, stewed fruits, and subtle hints of clove and cinnamon.

The result? A harmonious blend of Tasmanian purity and oak-driven complexity that defines the signature style of Hellyers Road Double Cask.

Crafted for Sippers, Loved by Explorers

This isn’t your typical dram. Hellyers Road Double Cask is made for whisky lovers who enjoy exploring flavors, depth, and detail. From the first nosing to the final sip, there’s a journey of sensory pleasure waiting to unfold.

Let’s break it down:

  • Nose: Candied orange leads the way, followed by stewed sultanas and a hint of jammy sweetness.

  • Palate: Rich yet balanced. Cinnamon spice and clove mingle effortlessly with soft cereal grain notes.

  • Finish: Short, sweet, and incredibly moreish.

At 46.2% ABV, the whisky carries a warm, satisfying strength without ever overpowering your palate. It’s bold but smooth, complex but approachable — a whisky that’s just as enjoyable for seasoned connoisseurs as it is for curious beginners.

If you’re searching for a whisky that offers layers of flavor with a uniquely Tasmanian soul, this is the bottle you want in your collection.

Why Double Cask Maturation Matters

Double cask maturation isn’t just a technique — it’s an art form. By finishing its single malt in both American Oak and French Oak wine barrels, Hellyers Road Double Cask captures the best of both worlds.

The American Oak offers foundational flavors: vanilla, toffee, and soft baking spices. The French Oak Pinot Noir barrels bring in juicy red fruits, hints of earthiness, and a subtle wine-like acidity that elevates every sip.

This duality of wood influence creates a tasting experience that’s fuller, rounder, and far more complex than a single-cask whisky. It’s a true expression of Tasmanian craft, and a delicious showcase of the Hellyers Road distillery’s mastery of balance and boldness.
