French Oak Ex-Tawny Refill

French Oak Second Fill TD0412 was distilled in August of 2013 and decanted in December of 2025 maturing at 12 years and 4 months, in a single 300L French oak ex-tawny cask previously filled with an older batch of Sullivans Cove Single Malt Whisky.

Our French Oak Second-Fill casks have a history as rich as their flavour. Initially serving as first-fill ex-Tawny casks for an earlier batch of Sullivans Cove single malt, the best casks are then selected for a second round of maturation. This maturation style beautifully displays the rich character of the French oak, while allowing the distinctive spirit character of Sullivans Cove to take centre stage.

"Refill cask magic here - this is a whisky that simply feels good to drink. The lactic and savoury notes that define Sullivans sit in beautiful conversation with the bright, playful fruit. Gentle yet vibrant, it captures everything that's special about a young(ish) Sullivans with real depth: youthful energy and genuine complexity all at once."

TASTING NOTES

  • Nose

    Inviting and approachable, opening with custard, warm pastries and butter melting into milk chocolate and vanilla. Milk bottle sweetness, malt milkshake and toasted sourdough round out the picture, whilst pink salt and savoury notes add dimension. Red currants and sugar snap pea bring a whisper of brightness. Gentle, creamy and soft throughout.

  • Palate

    Sticky and full-bodied, with delicate tannin that grips just enough to give structure. A confection note runs bright through: spun sugar, toasted marshmallow, mandarin jelly and a citrus burst. Mango chips, lime cheesecake, boiled cherry candy and toffee follow, with freeze-dried fruit and matcha adding complexity.

  • Finish

    Medium-long and wonderfully balanced, moving into earthiness with green tea and matcha undertones. Ripe stone and orchard fruit - juicy pear, sweet apple - give way to brown sugar, banana and salted caramel, with a savoury edge of spice and a playful hit of mango chilli sauce.

'Refill' or 'second-fill' means this barrel has been used to mature Sullivans Cove whisky before. Refill casks are a canvas for spirit character to shine. If you asked around here at Sullivans Cove, you'd quickly find out our refill barrels are a staff favourite.
