The Sullivans Cove Distillery, has today announced the launch of two new bottlings from a new label in its Cask Variations Series.

Sullivans Cove launches two new American Oak Refill bottlings

Unlike Sullivans Cove’s standard American Oak ex-bourbon single cask label, these casks have never held bourbon. Originally commissioned by the distillery direct from the cooperage in the mid 1990s as virgin casks, they were first filled with an older batch of Sullivans Cove single malt whisky.

Once that first batch was decanted and bottled, these casks were refilled with new make spirit. Thirteen years later, the refill spirit is said to have reached its peak and ready for release as Sullivans Cove American Oak Refill Cask.

Commenting on the news, Heather Tillott, Head Distiller, said: "Take your expectations and throw them out the window. This whisky is fascinating to both the palate and the mind."

Sullivans Cove American Oak Refill TD0080 and Sullivans Cove American Oak Refill TD0082, are now available exclusively to subscribers of the Sullivans Cove Distillery mailing list, for a RRP of $400.00 AUD each.
