It took some of the world’s oldest Shiraz plantings, Australia’s oldest family-owned winery and Starward’s progressive red-wine-barrel maturation to make this distinctly Australian single malt. When a whisky speaks to Australia’s wine heritage – and Australia’s whisky future – you know it’ll be delicious. Especially when it brings the bold flavors you’d expect from Barossa Shiraz barrel maturation.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Rich, full-bodied expression. Red fruit, raisins, ripe peach, caramel and toasty oak.

Taste: Viscous and long, dark forest fruits, and a toasted oak backbone.

Finish: Toasted marshmallow on the finish.

Smooth and flavoursome in style, Left-Field is unique to Starward as we’ve only used 100% French oak to give a rich and spicy mouthfeel and to enhance the complex oak characters, while maintaining the delicate wine flavours that have soaked into the barrels.

Bringing together Australian barley and Australian red wine barrels from our famed wine regions, of the Barossa Valley and Yarra Valley, Starward Left-Field truly celebrates the barrels which had previously held some of Australia’s biggest and boldest red wines.

Eminently approachable and delicious, Left-Field has been deliberately crafted to be ideal for mixing with anything or mixed with nothing. Drink it your way!

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Soft aromatics of tropical fruits, red apple skin, fresh red berries and warming vanilla spice.

Taste: Estery and bright tropical fruit character with a rich mouthfeel and lightly toasted oak.

Finish: Delicate finish with a soft tannic structure.

Matured in an American oak bourbon cask this rare and unique Single Malt is a clean and nutty with a lingering smoky maltiness. There’s lots of sweet barley and fruit on the front of the palate leading into vanilla and citrus notes, and a long even honeyed finish. Great balance.

Hand crafted to perfection in a boutique copper pot, this Australian Single Malt Whisky is created from renowned Tasmanian barley, double distilled with the world’s purest wilderness water from the pristine rain-forests & mountains around Hobart.
