Tropical fruits, toasted oak with lingering smoky peat

The Peated Finish; Our second, 'new world' take on an old-world whisky style. It's a red wine barrel aged, single malt whisky. Finished in peated barrels, straight off the rugged coast of Islay, Scotland. Melded with Starward's quintessential tropical notes and the smoky and earthy flavours from Islay’s coastal peat. Expect a whisky that's unlike any other in Australia.

It's the perfect pairing

We encourage everyone to sip Starward how they want, but we do have a few personal favourites when it comes to pairing Peated Finish with food. Filled with flavours of smoky peat, toasted oak and bright tropical fruits, Peated Finish is unmistakably delicious when paired with fresh oysters or an indulgent dish of your choice, such as smoky beef brisket or an oozy chocolate lava cake. Whether it's in a cocktail or neat, there's always a spot at the dinner table for peat.
