The Lark story is not so much about the distillery but the man behind he distillery and for that matter behind the seed of Australian Whisky distilling as we know it today. Bill Lark realised that that everything you need for a world-class whisky was in Tasmania – rich fields of barley, an abundance of wonderfully pure soft water, highland peat bogs, and the perfect climate to bring all the ingredients together in a marriage of science, art and passion. The vision of producing Tasmanian malt whisky was born on a trout fishing trip in the highlands of Tasmania. Bill’s father in-law Max produced a wonderful bottle of single malt, and as they enjoyed a drink in the park at Bothwell, surrounded by Georgian buildings, barley fields and the gentle flowing of the Clyde River, Bill remarked to Max, “I wonder why there isn’t anyone making malt whisky in Tasmania”.

A standout experimental release from the House of Lark, this Chinotto Cask Strength delivers an intense smoky citrus explosion. Lark have taken everything you love from the original Chinotto and turned the up the heat, crafting a fiery flavour fling of a single malt. With all the romance of a bountiful orange harvest in Southern Italy, the Chinotto Cask Strength 2022 boldly delivers undeniable zest with every sip. Salute!
