Old Kempton Port Cask Strength Single Malt Whisky (500ml)

Old Kempton’s wash is 100% Tasmanian-grown and malted barley, made a short drive away at Cambridge. Distiller Rob Tyson works very closely with the brewer from the outset to ensure it is made to measure. Like all the Whiskies at this distillery, the wash was then double-distilled in squat Knapp Lewer copper pot stills (made in Hobart). The spirit was then aged for five to six years before blending and bottling (at cask strength). The casks are sourced from Seppeltsfield and Yalumba in South Australia, and had previously housed Tawny Ports with an average age of 30-40 years. The shaving level depends on the age of the barrel (the older the deeper), but the toast is always medium, and the char is always heavy.
