Description
A celebration of the Melbourne-based Starward life.
Melbourne is famous for its insane weather, where all four seasons present themselves in one day like it’s a demo. But while such changes may be obnoxious to people, they’re perfect for maturing booze. David Vitale, Melbourne native, established the Starward Distillery in 2007. He sources his barley from the nearby farms, while the maturation barrels come from vineyards in Victoria. Starward’s Whisky spends two years only in Red Wine barrels, but the crazy climate accelerates the process in “Melbourne years.” Their Spirits are unique and unmistakably Aussie.
Starward Vitalis Single Malt Australian Whisky celebrates the Starward Life – the name comes from David Vitale’s family name, which means life in Latin. Aged in a complex combination of red Wine, Tawny, Rum, Bourbon, 1st and 2nd fill Apera barrels, it brings a vibrant hue, deep fortified flavors, and rich storytelling. This is a ripe and fruity Whisky, which makes you exclaim ‘Starward!’ as soon as you taste it. The flavors of rich dried fruits, ripe red currants, and hints of lightly roasted coffee beans are beautifully balanced with tropical notes. All rounded up by a long and creamy finish, it’s easy to enjoy this precious liquid neat.
