About the Whisky Nova is Starward’s signature single malt whisky which has received several global awards, but the real gold is in the bottle. This whisky is fully matured in Australian red wine barrels from wineries local to our distillery. These wineries make the great Australian shiraz, cabernet and pinot noir wines. With our distillery located within a day’s drive to Australia’s most famed wine regions, we often receive many of our barrels within hours of being emptied. This allows us to ‘wet fill’ our barrels with new make spirit to access as much of the wine’s fruit character as possible. The result is a deliciously balanced and bold whisky made for sharing and mixing. Nose : Bright flavours of red berries and orchard fruit and coated them in soft oak spice. Palate : Imagine a rich red berry pudding covered in vanilla, caramel and spice. Finish : Balanced and long. The sweetness fades and the delicious flavour goes on.
