{"product_id":"archie-rose-single-malt-australian-whisky","title":"Archie Rose Single Malt Australian Whisky","description":"\u003cp\u003eArchie Rose Single Malt Australian Whisky is the flagship of the Sydney distillery — made from six sustainably sourced Australian heirloom and aromatic roasted barley malts, each processed separately through the distillery's individual malt stream system before blending, then aged in Australian fortified wine (apera) casks alongside European and American oak in the maritime air of coastal Sydney. It has been named Australia's Best Single Malt Whisky five times. 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 46% (92 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 Single Malt Whisky\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\u003eMalts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Six Australian heirloom and roasted barley malts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCasks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australian apera (fortified wine), European oak, and American oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAwards:\u003c\/strong\u003e IWSC 2026 — 95 points; five-time Australia's Best Single Malt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArchie Rose built its single malt around a simple belief: great whisky starts in the field. Six distinct Australian barley malts — including heirloom varieties and specialty roasted malts sourced from local farmers through maltsters like Voyager Craft Malt — are each mashed, fermented, and distilled separately in the distillery's individual malt stream system, so the team can draw out each malt's precise character before marrying them. Resting in apera casks that once held Australian fortified wine, plus European and American oak, gives the whisky its luscious, dessert-leaning depth. The expression arrived in the US in October 2026 in the new Chris Hemsworth co-created bottle.

The palate is viscous — plum jam, chestnuts with whipped cream, and homemade toffee, extending to ripe pineapple, strawberry jam, and browned butter. Dark chocolate with sea salt, sticky meringue, and marzipan build into a long, engaging fade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Enjoy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePour it neat or with a few drops of water to open the roasted-malt depth, or give it a large cube.
