Distillery: Tasmania Distillery

Sullivans Cove Single Malt Tasmanian Whisky is made from barley grown exclusively on the island of Tasmania. “The island’s deep red basalt soil, pure water and mild temperatures result in a barley that is perfect for distillation,” says Patrick Maguire, the distillery’s founder and master distiller. Once the barley has been harvested, it is malted at the Cascade Brewery by Roger Ibbott, who has over four decades of experience malting barley. The malted barley is then mashed and fermented at Sullivans Cove Distillery using a unique strain of yeast developed specifically for the production of Sullivans Cove Whisky. Then, the wash is distilled twice through a handmade copper-pot still.

Distillery Information

Situated along the banks of the River Derwent on the island of Tasmania, Sullivans Cove was the site of one of Britain’s first penal colonies in Australia. In 1804, at the order of the Governor King of the British settlement of New South Wales, Lt. John Bowen transported some of the most heinous British criminals to Sullivans Cove, which eventually developed into the city of Hobart. Hobart was the perfect penal colony the area’s dense forests required a huge labor force in order to establish a settlement, and its isolation and inaccessibility ensured there was no escape. Today, the island of Tasmania remains of one the most isolated and natural places on earth approximately 37% of the island is protected as natural reserves.
