Panel Feedback

“A delightfully aromatic rum featuring prominent banana cake and tropical fruit notes that create an inviting and well-balanced flavor profile. The spirit offers good mouth coverage with sweet, approachable characteristics including green apple undertones and a satisfying finish.”

Testimonials

One of the big problems with the whisky industry in Australia is a lot of the whiskies taste the same. They are too young and hide the subtle characteristics of the distillery. This whisky is unique and expresses the character of the distillery

Tim Duckett, founder of Heartwood Whisky and T.I.B.

Captain Bligh's has been an integral part of the Tasmanian artisanal beer and spirit movement. Head Distiller Adam has crafted some cracking whiskies that are sure to impress, producing spirits of the highest quality with distinctive terroir and delicious flavour profiles

Since meeting Steve and Karen I’ve been privileged to witness their passion to create firstly an amazing brewery in the early days of craft brewing in Tasmania and later following with a desire to produce a single malt whisky to make Tasmania proud. Steve and Karen were lucky to make it a family concern when they took on their son, Adam to become their distiller. Adam had honed his craft at another Tasmanian distillery, bringing his skills to their distillery and winning a Silver medal with his first gin.

I’ve been fortunate to enjoy an early dram of their latest single malt whisky which is a beautifully balanced whisky, both a rich and elegant Tasmanian malt.

Proud and privileged to know the Brooks family and to have them as part of Tasmanian industry.
