As the distillery that put Tasmania on the whisky-making map, Sullivans Cove has a well-earned reputation for making some of the finest expressions ever produced in Australia, or anywhere else for that matter. Over the course of decades, and with one handcrafted release after another, this unassuming whiskymaker has ensured that each of its launches would be more highly anticipated than the one that preceded it. All of this has led us to Sullivans Cove Single Cask N° TD0346 16 Year Old French Oak Second-Fill, a new and wonderfully luxurious winter warmer, equal parts honeyed, spiced, and complex. It is, in a word, irresistible. To discover this remarkable release for yourself, you'll need to enter the ballot via the link below, but first let's take a closer look at what makes Sullivans Cove's latest effort so special. Depth and Refinement Distilled in 2008 and decanted in February of 2025, this expression was aged in a single 300L French oak second-fill cask for 16 years. Second-fill casks allow for long-term maturation without being overtaken by the influence of oak or pre-fill, which in this case has enabled the whisky to become imbued with a wonderful sense of balance. Thanks to the space left by the soft oak profile, the fruity esters within the whisky have been allowed to reveal themselves. From notes of dark, jammy berries, aromatic spice, and hints of bright fruit, the Sullivans Cove 16 Year Old French Oak Second-Fill boasts a depth and refinement you need to experience to believe. Tasting Notes On the nose, the Sullivans Cove 16 Year Old French Oak Second-Fill serves up an inviting assortment of honeycomb and maple syrup, intertwined with the soft spice of whole coriander seed and the depth of Assam tea. Pimento and dried orange peel add to the complexity as a green jelly note adds a welcome sense of playfulness. The aroma is rounded out by a broad, buttery note, signposting the whisky's luxurious nature. Taking a sip, you're met with a gently structured tannin that recalls sweet espresso. Vanilla bean paste unfurls alongside honey muffins and candied fruits, which are brightened by orange peel, before notes of cola, sherbet, and glacé cherry dance across your tongue. The finish consists of a seamless transition from confection to a waxy texture with a gentle tannin edge. Lingering with notes of black tea, cardamom, and cinnamon, while banana caramelised in butter and brown sugar strides into view, the experience ends with notes of macadamia nuts, honey, and a hint of heat-free cayenne for an enthralling final touch. Enter the Ballot To be in with a chance to secure a bottle of Sullivans Cove 16 Year Old French Oak Second-Fill for yourself, you'll need to enter the ballot via the link below. Bottled at 47.3% ABV, Cask N° TD0346 yielded only 447 bottles, so if successful, you'll be the proud owner of an unforgettable (and rare) piece of Australian whisky history.

At about 9:20pm local time, officers at the festival, held in a Salt Lake City suburb, saw two groups of people arguing, police said.

The Brief A shooting and traffic crash took place earlier this week in Bradenton, Florida. All three men involved in the incident were arrested, including a 16-year-old. However, only two of the men are facing charges. No one was seriously injured in the incident. BRADENTON, Fla. - Two people are facing charges in a Florida road rage incident over a turn signal that led to a shooting and a man being hit with an SUV earlier this week, deputies say. What we know At around 3:23 p.m. on June 2, the Bradenton Police Department said it received multiple 911 calls regarding a shooting and traffic crash in the Riverwalk parking lot on Riverfront Boulevard. Officials said 33-year-old Raesean Poole was driving a Jeep and waiting to turn left out of the parking lot at 101 Riverfront Boulevard. Meanwhile, 20-year-old Antony Williams was driving a Buick east on Riverfront Boulevard and turned left into the parking lot in front of Poole. Williams parked his vehicle, and Poole backed up to confront him about not using a turn signal, authorities said. Williams and a 16-year-old passenger exited the Buick. Poole told police that during the confrontation Williams showed him a gun. CCTV video shows Poole began to drive away several times, but repeatedly stopped and continued arguing with Williams. During the final confrontation, officials said Poole turned onto Riverfront Boulevard, reversed and accelerated toward Williams. Poole hit a stop sign and a tree before then striking Williams in the leg. In response, the 16-year-old retrieved a gun and fired into Poole's Jeep. Authorities said all three men were arrested shortly after the incident. Poole is charged with aggravated battery with a motor vehicle, and the teen is charged with aggravated assault with a firearm. Officials say Williams currently does not face any charges in the case, and he was not seriously injured.
