Starward Australian Whisky has announced the distribution of their double grain whisky in the U.S.
Starward Two-Fold Double Grain Whisky brings together wheat (60%) and malt (40%), which are distilled and fully matured separately in the distillery’s red wine barrels from Australian leading wineries.
Malted barley gives it depth, while wheat provides an aromatic and dry note, the company says. The red wine barrels provide fruit and spice flavors.
Suggested servings include a highball with soda for the aromatic spicy character to come through, a Boulevardier will bring out the baking spices, or a Two-Fold and Tonic.
Two-Fold originally launched in Australia in 2018.
Starward Two-Fold Double Grain Whisky has an ABV of 40% and is available nationally for the suggested retail price of $32.99 per 750-ml bottle.
Where one of these three grains is clearly identified by the producer, Wine-Searcher allocates that listing accordingly. When the precise comp ac7 onents of a spirit are unclear we may describe a listing as a blended whiskey. Whisky made from malted barley (in a pot still under Scottish and Irish rules) is known as malt whisky.
