STARWARD began with a simple idea; imagine a whisky unshackled from tradition, one which borrows from the past and marries it with the best Australia has to offer. STARWARD Two-Fold represents a landmark achievement for modern Australian whisky. Bringing together two iconic Australian grains; wheat and malted barley, STARWARD has created a distinctly approachable, well rounded whisky fully matured in Australian red wine barrels.

Starward Wine Cask Single Malt Whisky is uniquely Australian, crafted exclusively with local wine barrels for maturation resulting in a Whisky with balanced aromas of raisins, bananas and a touch of balsamic lead to clove, toffee and nougat. The palate is filled with red berries, hints of cinnamon and a variety of savoury and spice driven notes. A long, dry and tannic finish guides a strong linear reach through the palate, balancing a generous roundness and oiliness of the spirit.

Zesty and spicy go together so nicely with our take on the classic, using our very own distillery made Ginger Beer (the famous and unreleased). Fizzing with bright and refreshing tropical notes were taking dark spirits into the light.

The Starward Australian Whisky Gift Pack is the perfect gift this holiday season. This pack includes 3x 200ml bottles of class Starward Australian Whiskies - Two-Fold Double Grain Australian Whisky, NOVA Single Malt Australian Whisky, & FORTIS Single Malt Australian Whisky. Two-Fold Double Grain Starward Two-Fold Double Grain Whisky is a flavourful Australian whisky matured in Australian red wine barrels. This ambitious expression marries two quintessentially Australian grains - wheat and malted barley - and elementally matures them in Melbourne's intensely reactive climate. Two-Fold promises to deliver an approachable whisky, with bright aromas of spiced vanilla, tropical fruits and cereals. The palate is rounded carrying hints of red apples and berries. The finish is delicate with soft tannins and lingering red fruits. This is a whisky for any occasion; neat by the fire, on ice to celebrate, mixed up in a perfect Manhattan. Two-Fold is made for the sharing cabinet, so enjoy with friends and family. Nova Single Malt Winner of Best Australian Whisky Innovator and crowned Best Craft Distilled Whisky in the world in 2016, Starward Nova Single Malt Whisky is an impeccable reflection of what whisky can be. This unique expression draws most of its influence from the vibrancy of Australian red wines. For this whisky, Australian red wine barrels have been individually selected and kept exactly as they leave the winery to take advantage of a uniquely Australian red wine profile. The barrels are not charred, to retain the wine to oak character. Fortis Single Malt Starward Fortis (Latin for "Strong") has been fully matured in 100% American oak ex red wine barrels, predominantly sourced from the Barossa Valley Wine Region. This single malt whisky is full-bodied, flavour-forward, and maintains intense ripe fresh fruit and wine flavours extracted from the barrel staves. The finish is long and captures the palate with flavours of ripe figs, raisins, and vanilla toasted oak.

All of which help create a Whisky of smoothness, sweetness and unparalleled complexity.
