Founded in 1859 and best known for their award-winning fortified wines, Morris of Rutherglen, located near the Murray River in Northern Victoria, are now making whisky and these guys mean business especially as they have access to excellent casks from their own vineyards.
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
