Welcome to The Odd Whisky Coy!
Australia's only specialist on-line whisky retailer.  So if you are looking for fine, rare, odd and downright drinkable single malt whiskies plus other amusing dark spirits, then this is the place for you!  Direct to your door, my aim is to give the Australian malt drinker the latest and greatest in single malt whiskies and lots, lots more.

And now, you can follow me on the very new fashion...

 

And Trade enquiries are most welcome!


So who am I?
My name is Graham Wright: you may remember me from the old Baily & Baily days in Adelaide, where we built up one of the largest retail outlets for single malts in Australia.  Well I've moved on.  And so did my customers.  With a little nudging from them, the team at Oddbins Wine Auctions and my old boss, Martin Baily, I set up the Odd Whisky Coy. So you could say that we are still keeping the "spirit" well and truly alive in Oz.

Interested in find out more?
Easy...why not join our mailing, keep up to date with the world of whisky and better still, receive offers at below retail prices! And I'm always up for a chat!

New Spirit
For 2012!

  Blackadder Raw Cask Bunnahabhain
1991 19yo Sherry Butt 700ml 54.3%

One Of The Finest Indie Bunnys I've seen

For me, this was the standout malt at a recent, big Indie Islay show.  This malt is just about black, and with no caramel colouring!  This malt just oozes richness, sherried richness, lush, full weight spirit and a nice dash of peat.  A fab, sumptuous whisky and look at the age!

In Mr Robin's words, "Smoky, slightly peaty, liquorice, rich and malty. Creamy with lots of Sherry notes and lots of very dark orange chocolate".

Members Price: Just $180
 

 

Whisky Watch...
Getting Very Low!

Classic Glenfarclas
Glenfarclas 1974 700ml 43%

 And old note from Jim Murray (2008), "Nose: Light, fino-style sherry influence with the malt is usual subtle self; Taste: dry oak arrival vanished quickly to allow the sweetest malt ; great spice. Finish: lashings of rich malt and very late cocoa. Balance: for all the sweetness this is just so delicate.".

Just Feeeeeeeeel The Peat...

Since Glenmorangie and then Moet Hennessy got behind this distillery, there has been no looking back as this so called "entry level" malt is of a standard that few malts have ever come close to. Clean, precise, intense, complex, mouthfilling and of course highly peaty. Awesome in all departments.

Just ask Jim Murray, he goes to town over it in his Whisky Bible 2011.

Whisky Of The Month
For March...

Legendary!?
Blackadder Legendary
Sherry Cask 14yo 700ml 45%


It Gets Very Close...
A new one from legendary Mr Blackadder himself, Robin Tucek. This is a full flavoured dram which Mr Tucek assures me is matured in ex Oloroso casks, which has plenty of richly sweet malt flavours and a degree of crispness to it BUT the oak is very subtle.

Pic indicative only.


Members price $90,
normally $125



What I'm Drinking
At the moment..

A Mighty Meaty Malt...
Chieftains Choice Tomatin 1992
16yo Medoc Finish 700ml 50%

A large scale distillery that we really don't see much of in Australia, so even an indie bottling is of interest. Especially when it has been extra matured in used French oak casks. This may account for it's mighty meatiness.
