This limited rare release single malt won Australias Best Single Malt in 2024 at the Australian Distilled Spirit Awards. Kestrel is a marriage of three 100L refill Apera casks. After four years in refill casks the oak influence is light, refined and elegant allowing the spirit character to shine through. This character combines with the remaining hints of Apera to provide a full charcuterie of flavours.
