Hellyers Road American Oak 10YO Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml, 46.2% ABV)
$179.00
The American Oak 10 Year Old is a 2026 release from Hellyers Road Distillery in Burnie, on Tasmania's north-west coast – described by the distillery as the purest expression of its
house character.
As one of the oldest core-range Australian whiskies available, this product comes in beautiful, striking packaging (see images).
Laid down in 2016 in some of the distillery's best casks and first bottled in 2026, it was fully matured for 10 years in first-fill American oak ex-bourbon barrels, with no secondary maturation. Like every Hellyers Road whisky, it was milled, mashed, fermented and distilled on site.
Expect bright citrus, classic American oak vanilla and coconut, and the tropical notes that mark mature Hellyers Road whisky. It is also Kosher certified (Pareve).
Enjoy as you please. Try adding a few drops of water to open up the flavours.

About the Distillery
Hellyers Road Distillery was established in 1997 at Burnie on Tasmania's north-west coast, growing out of a local dairy co-operative, and has become one of Australia's largest single malt producers. Its whisky is made from Tasmanian barley and rainwater, with every step from milling to distilling done on site.
Since 1999 the distillery has matured its spirit mainly in full-size 200-litre American oak ex-bourbon barrels, many of them from Jack Daniel's, and its aged single casks have won major international awards, including a World Whiskies Awards category win in 2025 for its American Oak 22 Year Old. Head Distiller Fiona Coutts leads the team.
