{"product_id":"archie-rose-australian-original-whisky","title":"Archie Rose Australian Original Whisky","description":"\u003cp\u003eArchie Rose Australian Original Whisky is the newest addition to the Sydney distillery's core range — an all-malt whisky crafted from a marriage of Archie Rose's award-winning Straight Rye Malt and Single Malt whiskies, created in collaboration with co-owner Chris Hemsworth. Made from 100% Australian, sustainably farmed heritage rye and barley malts, with zero neutral spirits and no artificial colourings or flavourings, it matured for at least three years in European and American oak casks in the maritime air of coastal Sydney. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40% (80 proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australian Whisky — all-malt blend of rye malt and single malt whiskies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Archie Rose Distilling Co., Sydney, Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCasks:\u003c\/strong\u003e European and American oak, minimum three years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrains:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Australian heritage rye and barley malts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArchie Rose is Australia's most highly awarded distillery, and in October 2026 its core range landed in the United States for the first time — new bottles co-created with actor Chris Hemsworth, who joined as co-owner, built around deep-etched glass that reads \"Product of Australia\" and \"Distilled Down Under.\" Australian Original is the range's approachable, mixing-friendly entry point: rather than a grain-whisky blend, it marries two of the distillery's own malt whiskies — the spice-driven Straight Rye Malt and the rich Single Malt — into a lighter, fruit-forward style designed for drinking neat, over ice, or in cocktails.

The palate returns the pineapple with banana and citrus, layered with fresh dates, ground clove, and brown sugar, supported by vanilla cream and Belgian milk chocolate. The finish is round and supple — summer fruit salad, candied almonds, and chocolate ganache.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Enjoy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for versatility: pour it over ice with a citrus twist, lengthen it in a highball, or use it as the malt backbone of a Whisky Sour or Old Fashioned.
