About the event

Whipper Snapper Distillery

Established in 2014 by two young passionate whiskey drinkers, brother in-laws Alasdair Malloch and Jimmy McKeown. WSD was born from an idea shared that a new era of Australian whiskey could be crafted with it’s own identity, redefined, whilst still being authentic, quality whiskey helping to shape the future of the Aussie distilling industry.

Upshot - Bandit Blend Australian Whiskey

Upshot Bandit has been crafted with corn, wheat and barley and has been maturing in single barrel char #3, virgin American oak. With initial flavours of vanilla, caramel and dark fruits, this whiskey finishes with a smooth taste of butterscotch and chocolate for that sweet sensation.

Single Grain - Wheat Whiskey

A generation in the making, it began with sourcing the best. A Hard Red Winter Wheat from farms near Narrogin, WA. High in protein, wheat derives silky soft, honey rich characteristics. Aged for 4 years in Char #3 Virgin American White Oak barrels, flavours of vanilla, maple & caramel blend artfully together across oak & grain.

Upshot - Australian Whiskey Cask Strength

Long, generous with plenty of depth and vanilla Our signature Upshot which enters the barrel at 43%, Cask Strength gets filled at a traditional – 63.5%.  Resulting a warm, long finish with greater depth, and complex mouthfeel – best on the rocks.

Project Q – Quinoa Whiskey

Pepper, herbal, creamy mouth feel Australia’s first Quinoa whiskey, second ever worldwide. Majority (65%) locally grown quinoa, along with 25% corn, 10% malted barley. Aged for just under 3 years right here in Perth’s perfect whiskey climate. Best served neat or balanced in a sweeter cocktail for example a Manhattan.
