The Rattler refers to trains and this blended whisky is a collaboration between three distilleries - Backwoods, Fleurieu and Timboon which are all former railway stations or train sheds.
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
