Distichon Single Malt Whisky – Port Barrel Release

Puss and Mew Distillery is proud to introduce you to Distichon Whisky. Named after Hordeum distichon being the scientific name for 2 row barley which is the hero of our products.

Distiller’s Notes:

Distichon celebrates the humble two-row barley that began this journey. Using premium Australian Barley, distilled in our beloved Australian-made still, Helen, and nurtured in a first-fill Portuguese Ruby Port cask, this inaugural release is a whisky of provenance, patience and passion.

Rich, fruit-forward and wonderfully approachable, it’s a whisky that tells the story of where it came from and the people who made it.

We hope you enjoy.
