Excellent peated single malt balancing meaty smoke, citrus and coastal notes with Hellyers Road’s signature light, fruit-forward character.

Peated
Hellyers Road Richly Peated is an Australian single malt whisky made in Tasmania. As the name suggests, it puts peat smoke clearly at the centre while still sitting within a modern single malt style.
Excellent peated single malt balancing meaty smoke, citrus and coastal notes with Hellyers Road’s signature light, fruit-forward character.
A very impressive little beast: richly fruity and mentholated, with smoked banana and mango, a long peppery finish, and almost cask-strength power.
