About LarkAustralia
Lark Distillery was founded in Hobart, Tasmania, in 1992 by Bill and Lyn Lark, and was the first distillery to produce single malt spirit on the island. The founders sold the business in 2013 while keeping a 25% share, and in 2020 the company was renamed Lark Distilling Co., which is listed on the ASX as LRK. In 2021 it agreed to buy the owner of the Pontville Distillery and Estate at 76 Shene Road, Pontville, about 30 minutes north of Hobart. Its whisky is known for peat the distillery mines at Browns Marsh in the Central Highlands and for casks seasoned with Tawny Port, Apera and Muscadelle. Its annual winter release, Dark Lark, began in 2021 when the first edition was sold only at its Cellar Door during the Dark Mofo festival.
