HEARTWOOD NIGHT THIEF

In the modern story of Tasmania whisky, few names carry the quiet authority of Heartwood Malt Whisky. Created by independent bottler Tim Duckett, Heartwood has never chased scale, spectacle, or easy recognition. Instead, it has built a near-mythic reputation through patience, discernment, and an uncompromising eye for cask character. Drawing from Tasmania’s finest single malt spirit, Duckett has fashioned a label that celebrates not production volume, but the rare alchemy that occurs when exceptional whisky meets the right barrel at precisely the right moment.

What emerges in the glass is whisky of conviction: dense, layered, and unapologetically expressive. Heartwood bottlings are famed for their richness and power, yet beneath the intensity lies remarkable poise — notes of dark fruit, polished oak, baking spice, toffee, and malt unfolding with measured drama. In an era crowded with marketing narratives, Heartwood stands apart for offering something far rarer: substance, individuality, and a steadfast belief that great whisky should speak for itself.

A follow up release to "‘Shade of Night", this is an x-Larks oloroso sherry matured whisky, bottled by Heartwood in April 2018 at 64.3% with a total of 299 bottles. Proprietor, Tim Duckett continues to create sensory explosions from his ever expanding repertoire of Tasmanian stocks.
