Release #11 is here, and it’s an absolute stormer. This 3-year-old single cask Highwayman from Byron Bay is pure sunshine in a bottle—rich, dark, and perfectly balanced for a first-fill bourbon finish. Bottled at a bold 54.4% ABV, this whisky took its sweet time getting here—after what felt like an eternity on a boat, Hugo’s been pacing around like a kid on Christmas Eve. With only 98 bottles available and priced at £140, you’d better snap it up before it’s gone.
Some might raise an eyebrow at the age or the fact that Highwayman isn’t exactly a household name in the UK (yet). But we’re all about letting the whisky speak for itself. This dram is a prime example of how bold and experimental Australian whisky can be—no gimmicks, just pure flavour with a real kick.
We’re also chuffed to feature artwork by the legendary Mr Zero, who’s captured the spirit of this dram perfectly with his unmistakable style.
Tasting Notes:
• Nose: Imagine someone bottled the smell of an old country house—wood polish, a hint of musty carpet, and an untraceable fruitiness that could be strawberries or maybe just the idea of strawberries.
• Palate: Like chewing on oak planks dipped in dark chocolate while sipping an espresso that’s so strong it could do your taxes for you. Then the smoke hits—like if whisky, mezcal, and dark rum had a baby and that baby grew up to be both charming and slightly dangerous.
• Finish: Long. Like, “I thought this was over an hour ago, but I’m still tasting it” long. Like you bit into an apple and then kept chewing the skin for an unhealthy amount of time.
