Backwoods Distilling Co. in Yackandandah, Victoria, was founded by Leigh and Bree Attwood in 2017 and are making some of the most interesting Rye and Single Malt whiskies in Australia.
In classic Australian style, this whisky has absolutely rippled flavour out of its cask. However, while I was expecting spiky youth in the spirit and the abv, it drinks with a maturity and ease that belies these facts. I have since bought two bottles. Absolutely delicious and as good, if not better, than it’s Scotch peers
