Nestled in the rugged and wind-swept landscape of Burnie in north-west Tasmania, Hellyers Road has a wonderfully unique origin story rooted in local dairy farming. The founders recognised that their pristine local water and pure air were the absolute perfect ingredients for world-class whisky production. The distillery sits exposed to the fierce weather of the Bass Strait, meaning the resting casks are constantly interacting with the cool maritime climate. This slow maturation process allows the heavily peated spirit to mellow perfectly, drawing out rich vanilla tones from the wood while retaining that authentic earthy smoke. When you pour a glass of this seven-year-old release, you aren't just drinking a brilliant single malt; you're tasting the wild and untamed beauty of the Tasmanian coastline.
