About this listTasmania
Tasmania prohibited distilling from January 1839, and no whisky was made on the island between 1838 and 1990. Lark Distillery in Hobart was founded in 1992 by Bill and Lyn Lark, who got the distillation laws amended and set up the first distillery to make single malt spirit on the island. Lark makes Dark Lark, a limited winter release that began in 2021 with a muscat cask finish; the 2025 edition was aged in port, bourbon and sherry casks, finished in PX and Muscat casks and bottled at 43% ABV. Sullivans Cove, at Cambridge in Tasmania, has matured whisky in full size barrels since 1994, and its French Oak won World's Best in 2014 and 2019. Its French Oak releases are single casks, each with its own cask number and small outturn; cask TD0821, a 225L French oak ex-apera barrique, gave 367 bottles at 47.6% ABV. Its Old & Rare releases are its oldest whiskies, which the distillery describes as Australia's oldest.
