Starward Sticky Toffee Apple Whisky is a limited-edition Australian single malt from the distillery’s Small Batch program, showcasing bold experimentation and innovative barrel finishing. Initially matured in red wine barrels, this distinctive whisky is finished for three years in American apple brandy barrels, developing a luscious combination of orchard fruit, oak and dessert-inspired sweetness. Shaped by Melbourne’s famously changeable climate, the whisky gains remarkable depth and complexity. On the nose, floral apple blossom and tropical fruit aromas mingle with vanilla and toffee apple. The palate reveals ripe orchard fruits and almonds, followed by rich stewed apples and warming allspice.

With its deep copper colour and medium-to-long finish of rich fruit and cinnamon sugar, Starward Sticky Toffee Apple Whisky offers a smooth, indulgent character that appeals to seasoned whisky enthusiasts and newcomers alike. The extended finishing period allows the apple brandy barrels to impart layers of fruity sweetness and oak complexity, creating a distinctive expression of Starward’s experimental approach to whisky making. Produced in a limited release of just 1,600 bottles worldwide, this unique Australian single malt is an appealing choice for collectors and those seeking something different.
