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 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!

A Welcome Return
Bunnahabhain 12yo 700ml 40%

The Bunny 12yo to me is a true classic, lots of big malty flavours, the big luxuriant spirit is still there but now there’s a hint of the fresh sea air that works really well with the sweet oakey vanilla, quite appetising.

So welcome back old buddy!.

Whisky Watch...
Getting Low!

Duthies Longmorn 19yo
700ml 46%

 Longmorn's have always been sought after by a number of keen whisky drinkers, I suspect mainly for that big old fashioned style of taste and palate weight. This indie version should not disappoint,

I'll let the chaps at Cadenhead's explain why, "Nose: Beautifully fruity. Raspberry pavlova, marshmallows, fruit jam, raspberry cordial and just the right amount of smokiness. Palate: Burnt caramel, vanilla and smoke complement the fruity flavours. Finish: A pleasant smokey tingle complete with ripe red fruits."
It's the smokey tingle that appeals to me. Pic indicative only.

The Odd Whisky Coy
Whisky Of The Week
 
Super Triple Distilled
Hazelburn 8yo Sauternes
700ml 55.9%
 
This is dark and beautiful! This was a revelation when I first saw it in Perth in April 2011. How could they get so much flavour and colour into such a young whisky?

Members Price: $128





Whisky Of The Month
For January...

Feisty & Zesty...
Berrys Bowmore 1999
10yo 700ml 56.4%

Now a Berry Bros cask strength can't be all that bad. In fact this 10yo is quite a gem. Ex bourbon cask matured, zesty and intensive.  And of course, peaty!

Members Great Price: $99,
normally $145



What I'm Drinking
At the moment..

Taking Another Look At...
Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition
700ml 43%

The additional of an extra dose of Oloroso sherry maturation adds a pleasing degree of sweetness & richness to this “classic” malt.

From Scotchblog, "A gentle, delicate malt , subtle, smooth and delicately smoky. Exceptionally smooth and full of flavour, this specially selected Dalwhinnie has been finished in the rich Oloroso cask-wood.

Colour: Caramel brown 
Nose: Sherry, musty, slight smoke

Taste: Sweet, nutty sherry notes, with cocoa and musty oak. Gentle peat and smoke reveal themselves late in the finish.

Overall: This is a distinctly different expression of the standard Dalwhinnie, both the colour and flavour are considerably richer and the extra finishing has mellowed the spirit. An enjoyable foray, however, at this price there are better values."
