Backwoods Single Malt Whisky 48% 500ml \n

The mash bill for our Single Malt Whisky is made up of three grain types - Atlas LaTrobe (delivers a gentle and sweet flavour), Veloria Schooner (brings in a grassy and earthy profile) and Voodoo Schooner (rounds it out with honey and caramel). All of our grains are sourced from Voyager Craft Malt in the nearby Riverina region.

\n

The mash is left to ferment for a minimum of five days, and then twice-distilled in our copper pot still. The spirit is then transferred to its chosen cask for maturation. We have Single Malt maturing in a variety of American and French Oak casks, that have previously held whisky, red or fortified wines. Our first Single Malt release was aged in French Oak, ex-Tawny casks and sold out in less than 24 hours.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.
