Backwoods Red Gum Smoked Single Malt Whisky 700ml
A distinctly Australian single malt that replaces traditional peat with native red gum wood to smoke the barley, creating a bold and uniquely local flavour profile. This process delivers a rich, campfire-style smokiness that is smoother and slightly sweeter than classic peated whiskies, layered with notes of caramel, vanilla, and subtle spice. Matured in a combination of oak casks—often including Australian fortified wine barrels—it develops added depth, bringing together smoky intensity with a well-rounded sweetness.
On the palate, it offers a full-bodied experience with flavours of dried fruits, toffee, and smoked honey, balanced by gentle oak and warming spice. The red gum influence gives it a distinctive BBQ-like character, making it both approachable and complex. With its long, lingering finish and bold personality, this whisky is ideal for those looking to explore smoky styles with a uniquely Australian twist.
