This whisky is a combination of the best, most active casks that Spirit Thief have distilled and have maturing in their warehouse in Tasmania. The Inaugural edition - Future Black - Directors Cut is designed to be a vision of what kind of whisky the Directors at Spirit Thief wants to produce in the Future in 2030 when they have more aged stocks to pick from. They just don't have enough casks mature enough to produce this vision outside of this limited edition yet but its a great sign if this is where they are heading.Β This is by far the best Spirit Thief whisky I've tasted - its also by far the most expensive as if it is a collectors item rather than something to be drunk and it's limited to 500 bottles bottled at 60%ABV. If they can consistently produce whiskies like this at decent volumes and $80-$100 cheaper then there is a very bright future ahead for Spirit Thief. Welchs Grape juice, toffee apple, lemon drizzle cake, toasted custard brioche, mars bar. Great luxurious mouthfeel much less wine cask influence compared to earlier Spirit Thief releases.
Great company. Buy as much as you can, everything is awesome about this place.

Peter Bignell is a genius!
This is not only delicious, the tale of how it was made never ceases to amuse people at parties. So good I should've bought more!

Awesome way to try some very expensive whisky before you pay big money for a whole bottle
Awesome way to try some very expensive whisky before you pay big money for a whole bottle. Also a good way to tick off some bucket list brands that you just want a small taste to say you have tried it. Lots of fun!

One of my favourites
Normally I don't like wine barrel whisky but the Chichibu Red Wine Cask 2023 is one I grab every chance I can get.

Fantastic Service
I cannot speak highly enough of the concept, the product and the service from Horny Pony. It was bought as a gift after a recommendation and turned out to be perfect.

As Bold as Frankie.
This whisky is everything that Black Gate is known for. From the first sip it is an amazing burst of dark fruit and chocolate upfront developing into a peaty smoke and earthiness. The rich oily texture lingers, inviting you to come back again.
