A whisky for the curious by the curious. Kurio Crimson Jam blends Tasmanian Single Malts, uniquely finished in Tasmanian cherry and sparkling wine-seasoned casks. Vibrant, full-flavoured and versatile, it offers a balance of jammy sweetness and smooth apple-wood smoke. Expect flavours of honeyed apricot, a hint of nutmeg, black forest cake and a luscious medley of cherry jam, custard and velvety mocha through the finish. Serve neat or over ice, or go it in a High Ball or Old Fashioned. 40% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... The latest project from Lark Distilling Co. is Kurio, a blended malt whisky, finished in 'cherry and sparkling wine seasoned casks.' Lark has a long history of finishing their whiskies in interesting ways, and it’s nice to see one of these in a 700ml format for a reasonable price. Tasmania produces both excellent cherries and sparkling wine, so there’s some synergy there, too. The nose on this whisky is cask-forward yet soft, with plenty of rich red fruitiness. There’s really good integration and no rough edges, although with cherries and sparkling wine the headlines on the label, a bit more brightness and fun might be nice. Sweet and easy drinking with a lot less oak on the palate than the nose would suggest, this is a really well-made and enjoyable whisky without being particularly complex. Still, I doubt this bottle will last long on my shelf. 94 points - Fred Siggins, James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion
