Bailiff Whiskey Bank Bag & Ledger $425.00
In 1932 the Bailiff carried an old school bank note bag to collect the final payment for the farm from the young Granddad Jack. He proudly made payment in full, and the Bailiff stamped Granddad Jack's ledger 'paid'. As the next chapter of our Bailiff Whiskey begins, we were determined to create a timeless piece that represents Granddad Jack's values and brings another component to the story. So, this year, we embarked on an ambitious project to create another bespoke item to house our premium, small-batch whiskey releases. In the spirit of Granddad Jack, we've created something to be kept, cherished, and reused long after the bottle is empty.  The making of the Bailiff’s Bank Bag: The Bailiff's bank note bag was entirely constructed and finished by the skilled hands of Josef Selway, co-owner and talented craftsman behind the boutique workshop Blue & Grae, located in Albion, Brisbane. This piece was created to represent the old-school bank bag carried by the Bailiff as he approached to collect what was owed on the farm all those years ago. The bag's design and functionality, along with the traditional methods & tools used to craft it, are also a little nod to those from the same era of the story. Every element has been carefully thought about, from sourcing the finest Australian leather & assembling the components with tarnished hardware to represent the age. The dedication to true craftsmanship & meticulous attention to detail shown by Josef guarantees small-batch, quality pieces every time, each slightly different to the next. The story behind the ledger: When Granddad Jack made payment for the farm in full, he had never been prouder. So now, as you join the journey, we mark this moment as you, too, have made payment to the Bailiff. With every drink, we encourage you to celebrate. Share your story & write down in the ledger each time you share a drink and with whom you share it.

Bailiff Peated Whiskey $320.00
These whiskeys started out as the same liquid, brewed out of 100% heavily peated malt and distilled in the same batch on the same day. Their journey parted when the, then 65.88% ABV liquid was divided in half & sent to hibernate into two separate small 20L barrels. Each barrel with its own characteristics - as a result of the Cooper’s handcrafting. The barrels were both made of Virgin American Oak and both only lightly charred (one more tightly coopered than the other). The whiskeys spent 2yrs & 1mth sitting right beside each other in our barrel room, ageing away, slowly leaking, evaporating and soaking into the wood until finally being ready for bottling. This is when the differences emerged.

Not Whiskey (Single Malt) $170.00
Behind the name: Granddad Jack loved a whiskey and enjoyed one 'neat' everyday. He believed that "all great spirits can be drunk neat". We only make small batch spirits and don't blend. Each one is special and can never be reproduced. Drinking the contents of this bottle makes you a part of our family forever. Did you know... in Australia, to call a Whiskey 'Whiskey' it must be aged in a wooden barrel for a minimum of two years? Our new age thinking achieves world class whiskey in less time using unique 20L craft barrels - carefully nurtured to a perfect age. The old rules need to change.  Until then, we present our "Not Whiskey" because the law forbids us to call it Whiskey even though this spirit is made in exactly the way whiskey is meant to be made.  You decide...is it or isn't it? Single Malt ABV: 40% Release: 41 Bottles
