EX LIBRIS - Hellyers Road - 10 years - 2014 - The Narrow Road - 58.10%
Hellyers Road Distillery, founded in 1999 in Tasmania, has established itself as one of the major players in Australian whisky. Located in Burnie, in the northwest of the island, the distillery benefits from a cool climate, exceptionally pure water resources, and a constant sea air, all of which shape the precise and singular style of its single malts. The artisanal approach and slow distillation in copper pot stills ensure a clear expression of Tasmanian terroir.
Ex Libris – Hellyers Road 10 Year Old 2014 “The Narrow Road,” bottled at 58.10%, is a limited edition selected for its strong personality and rich aromas. Aged entirely in American oak barrels, this single cask strength cask highlights the natural power of the malt and the complexity acquired over time. Its “The Narrow Road” label evokes both the rigor of the selection and the unique path taken by this vintage, emblematic of the Ex Libris philosophy: rare whiskies, chosen for their intensity and depth.
The nose opens with a rich aroma of vanilla, dried fruit, and toffee, enhanced by notes of honey, toasted wood, and sweet spices. On the palate, the texture is full and oily, revealing flavors of salted caramel, toasted hazelnut, and candied apricot. The perfectly integrated alcohol supports a lively and balanced structure. The finish, long and precise, combines white pepper, cocoa, and a subtle saline touch, recalling the maritime influence of Tasmania.
Enjoy neat to appreciate its power, or with a few drops of water to reveal all its aromatic complexity.
