'The Mermaid' stands as a testament to our inaugural foray into the world of distillation, marking the maiden release of our whisky. This exceptional creation embodies the essence of softness, lightness, and floral elegance.

To craft this whisky, we began with the finest Malted Barley sourced from Voyager Malt in New South Wales. Every step of the process was meticulously carried out by hand, from mashing the barley to distillation.

The whisky then embarked on its maturation journey, resting in a combination of casks that included one 25-liter and five 50-liter French Oak barrels. These barrels had previously cradled Red wine from the renowned Napa Valley in the United States. After their Napa Valley sojourn, these barrels underwent a meticulous transformation. They were carefully scraped, re-coppered, and re-charred, with the addition of virgin American oak ends. This intricate process imparted a unique character to the whisky, infusing it with smooth caramel notes and nuanced flavours.

'The Mermaid' whisky is a true embodiment of craftsmanship and dedication, representing the inception of our distilling adventures. With its soft, light, and floral profile, it promises a remarkable journey of taste and refinement, setting the stage for an exciting whisky experience like no other.
