Mountain Distilling’s latest innovation and first single malt produced by the distillery, Red Gum Single Malt, has been awarded 95 points and gold at this year’s International Wine and Spirit Competition in Soho, London.

Mountain Distilling’s Red Gum Single Malt was one of the highest scoring in Australia
Red Gum Single Malt utilises 100% malted barley, distilled in the Macedon Ranges and
is one of the first distilleries to use native Australian Red Gum exclusively from start to finish in the maturation process as the only wood influence, creating a distinctly Australian flavour profile.

IWSC judges note that Red Gum Single Malt’s profile is a “herbaceous, spicy smoked nose with aromas of caramel, burnt wood and hedgerow. Peat comes through well on the palate and balances the flavours of prunes, Christmas spice and pear, brightened by a hint of citrus”.
