We wanted to let you know that this month the Oak Barrel is hosting an exclusive whisky and cheese matching night with Sullivans Cove. The uniquely cured cheeses from Sullivans Cove compliment the whiskies that are regarded  as one of  Australia’s finest exports. Sullivans Cove whisky has been rated 90+ in Jim Murray’s annual World Whisky Bible and produce over 250 barrels of whisky a year. 

Tasmanian Providore Single Malt Whisky Cheddar is a “new to the world” product innovation. Firstly the Cheddar is matured for a minimum of 9 months. It is a deep yellow colour with a firm closed texture. The cheese is handmade – quite uncommon in this day and age of mass produced cheddars. Once mature it is infused with 8 Yr old Tasmanian Sullivans Cove Single Malt Whisky. The Single Malt Whisky flavour that develops complexity with further ageing. As the cheese matures the result is a deep, full flavour that lingers.

“Among the colonizing population of Tasmania were the Irish and Scottish who, upon stepping ashore married their passion, know how and heritage of whisky distilling with the most pristine whisky making environment in the world. Soon after settlement the air was rife with the scent of illicit whisky, as distilleries were established in the Sullivans Cove area.  Governor Franklin noted that he could reach port in the foggy gloom of winter by simply pointing his ship towards the smell of whisky.” www.tasmaniadistillery.com.au
