The Story
Created to mark 15 years of Starward innovation, Vitalis is a rare expression that embodies the distillery’s journey from bold idea to world-class whisky. Named in honour of founder David Vitale, this limited release showcases the artistry of carefully selected casks, bottled at a robust 52% ABV for exceptional depth and character.
Inside This Bottle
- Aroma: Layers of rich cacao, roasted almonds, and subtle oak, lifted by hints of tropical fruit
- Taste: Dark chocolate, toffee, and Christmas cake meet bright citrus and warm spice
- Finish: Long, indulgent, and complex with echoes of leather, coffee, and sweet fudge
Why It Stands Apart
- Crafted to celebrate Starward’s 15th anniversary milestone
- Named for its visionary founder, a tribute to bold Australian whisky-making
- Drawn from a unique marriage of premium casks for unparalleled flavour complexity
- Limited availability — a whisky for collectors and connoisseurs alike
This is more than a whisky; it’s a celebration of heritage, craftsmanship, and ambition — bottled to savour today, and to be remembered for years to come.
