Tasmania is well known for its whisky. Indeed, liquid gold from here has been named the world’s finest and more than 50 distilleries dot the island. There’s one though, that is not like the rest. Some would say, it’s a square peg on a shelf of shiny round bottles. But that’s the Fannys Bay way.Good things take time. The result is a smooth, mature, full palate with a refreshing hint of northern coastal waters to be savoured slowly. Little wonder this scarce drop has found its way into VIP casino lounges and world-class resorts. Few might have heard about Fannys Bay Distillery, but those in the know are swept away by its rare flavour profile and hand-crafted, seaside tale. The saliferous undertones may shift with the seasons – no bottle is the same as the next. But isn’t that how a square peg forever is? Not the same as the rest? Fannys Bay will never fit in a round bottle.
