The Tassie bottles come in 500ml or smaller so the price tag escalates rapidly. The one's I have tried, distilled in Hobart, 'Lark' I think were pretty innocuous and trying real hard to taste like scotch rather than Australian Whiskey. A mate brought a 'cradle mountain' brand back and it was really quite dreadful, not sure if the bottle was even finished off. The Smith's is young at 7 years old and suffers from lack of age but it has complex flavours, a good nose great colour and you get 700ml for $50-$60. It has not been made for the tourist market, it is not a scotch wannabe. Its sweet with a bit of peat and smoke probably a bit sweeter than your average Irish but still a long way from Rye. One I will certainly buy again coz I like it but I'd love to see the Aussie production expand to genuine whiskey not the tourist lolly water.
