Camborne Single Malt Australian Whisky by The St Agnes Distillery specialises in carefully selected Single Cask Whisky.
The St Agnes Distillery is one of Australia’s oldest, continuously run, family owned and operated craft distilleries. With over 110 years of experience practising the fine art of distillation through our historic Copper Pot stills we demand uncompromising quality while nurturing the individual character of our spirit.
Since 1886, our winery and distillery’s reputation has been built on producing high quality apera, grand and rare tawny and brandy. This heritage has resulted in an extensive and diverse oak reserve that is unrivalled across Australia.
Brandy Cask Aged
Colour: Pale gold
Entry: Vanilla and crème caramel with a faint wisp of cedar shavings, opening up into layered caramel malt and Anzac biscuit (oatmeal cookie?).
Finish: Pear tarte tatin, ginger spice, lightly roasted nuts, tobacco and a hint of smoke. Oak tannins firm the palate for a dry and pleasant finish.
Sherry Cask Aged
Colour: Orange gold
Entry: Plenty of aromatic spice on entry – Szechuan pepper, fenugreek, nutmeg leading into treacle and dates. Slight hint of very old oak.
Finish: Candied dark roasted nuts and bitter chocolate. Drying oak tannins mid-palate easing into a slightly sweet honey cake finish.
Tawny Cask Aged
Colour: Medium amber
Entry: Abundant rancio flavours – Golden raisin fruit cake, maple syrup, almond praline. Subtle notes of cocoa and dusty oak close out the nose.
Finish: Juicy muscatels, caramel malt, milk chocolate, almond praline. Maturation in Grand and Rare Tawny casks have given a rich silky finish.
Shiraz Cask Aged
Colour: Light orange.
Entry: Strawberry and vanilla ice-cream sundae, followed up with a hint of lightly roasted nuts and caramel malt.
Finish: Juicy cherry pie, liquorice and Rhum Agricole complexed with a whisp of bacon and smoke. Wine and oak tannins meld together for a seamless mouthfeel and mellow drying finish.
