A beautifully Australian friendship

The partnership between Tasmania’s Lark Distilling Co and Seppeltsfield is a uniquely Australian one, brought about as Lark prepared to celebrate 30 years of whisky making.

The latest in Lark’s Rare Cask Series, Rare Cask Para 92, the single malt is finished in rare Seppeltsfield Para Liqueur casks from 1992.

Lark Distilling Co.’s Rare Cask Series adheres to a pursuit of excellence; crafting whisky from the world’s rarest and most storied casks. Celebrating the distinct characteristics of every cask, each release in the series has its own unique story. Para 92 is a remarkable addition to the Lark collection.

Only 3,000 bottles are available of the single malt which is rich and sweet on the nose with hints of berry custard and scorched nuts, followed by new leather and pipe tobacco. The remarkable heritage of the oak that once held the 30-year-old Seppeltsfield Para Tawny creates delightful chapters of mouthwatering complexity that will have you wanting more. 

To taste, Para 92 is rich, deep and incredibly complex, born from the character and history of the 30 year casks this Single Malt Whisky was finished in. 

Founder of Lark Distilling Co, Bill Lark said “The release of this special single malt is a celebration of Lark Distilling and the partnership with Seppeltfield. This is a release we want to be celebrated and enjoyed with a limited number of bottles released from today. The Para Tawny casks were complex and offered a depth and character that have made this release so special. The result is long and sticky oak sweetness, perfect for those wanting to enjoy as we roll into Autumn.” 

In the spirit of celebration, the anniversary Para 92 set includes a 100ml bottle of Seppeltsfield 1992 Para Liqueur to taste, enjoy or share as you wish, honouring the year Lark started its first distillation.
