SPIRITS the Result of Human Curiosity and Discovery Our complete Treasure List of SPIRITS The result of human curiosity and discovery. FROM CURIOSITY, DISCOVERY EVOLVES. Humans have long tried to understand our world, explaining its complexities through theories of spirituality, biology, geography and astronomy. This insatiable thirst for understanding fuelled a period of unprecedented discovery during the 1800s with the mapping of our globe, the industrial revolution and the collection of countless botanical, zoological and geological artefacts. Our minds expanded with curiosity as mysterious fossils were uncovered; answering some questions, but presenting thousands more. And just as palaeontologists have captured our imagination with incredible beasts from centuries past, so too have the world’s master distillers by hand-crafting the finest spirits through alchemy of earth’s elements. These spirits endeavour to explain the complexities of our world and are celebrated, wholeheartedly, at Evolve Spirits Bar.

Bill Lark, owner and founder of Lark Distillery and renowned godfather of Australian whisky, realised that that everything you need for a world-class whisky was in Tasmania: rich fields of barley, an abundance of wonderfully pure soft water, highland peat bogs and the perfect climate to bring all the ingredients together in a marriage of science, art and passion. So, Bill lobbied the State government to overturn legislation prohibiting the distillation of spirits (a process he says attracted almost no resistance from government) and was successful in his bid. That is how it all began in Tasmania and our spirits industry has only continued to evolve since. 4 Belgrove Aged Rye | Kempton | 46.5% $25 | 30mL chamomile tea | cedar oak | sourdough bread | slight dill & caraway Heartwood #2 | Hobart | 40% $68 | 30mL poached pears | baking spice | toasted oak | raisin muffins Killara Port Cask (KD02) | Goodwood | 50% $55 | 30mL marzipan| stone fruit | rum & raisin | bold finish Killara Sherry Cask (KD03) | Goodwood | 50% $55 | 30mL brown sugar| dried fruits | oak notes | long finish Lark | Classic Cask | 43% $25 | 30mL orange peel | butterscotch | subtle peat | smooth finish Lark | Cask Strength | Coal River Valley | 58% $35 | 30mL dried fruits| sweet spices | honeyed vanilla| light citrus Lark | Distiller’s Selection | Coal River Valley | 46% $38 | 30mL butterscotch | salted caramel | dark chocolate| burnt orange 5 Lark | The Wolf Release | Coal River Valley | 54% $55 | 30mL lychee| kiwi Fruit | dark chocolate| oaked vanilla Launceston Distillery | Tawny Port | Western Junction | 46% $26 | 30mL stone fruit| Christmas spice | dried sultanas| dry oak Launceston Distillery | Apera Cask| Western Junction | 46% $30 | 30mL orchard fruits | cocoa | fresh oak | blackcurrants McHenry | Double Cask| Port Arthur | 44% $48 | 30mL citrus fruits | clean oak | chocolate coated almonds | toffee Nant | Bourbon Cask | Bothwell | 43% $34 | 30mL maple syrup| honey | crème brûlée | dark fruits Nant | Bourbon Cask | Cask Strength | Bothwell | 63% $65 | 30mL muscovado sugar| butterscotch | burnt vanilla | toasted barley Nant | Port Cask | Bothwell | 43% $34 | 30mL gingernut biscuits| caramel | sultanas | liquorice Nant | Port Cask | Cask Strength | Bothwell | 63% $55 | 30mL madeira raisins | buttered caramel | cherries | spiced pudding 6 Nant | Sherry | Bothwell | 43% $34 | 30mL hazelnuts | orange toffee | dry oak | roasted fruits Nant | Sherry | Cask Strength | 63% $55 | 30mL burnt orange | jaffa | candied almonds | dried figs Old Kempton | Port Small Cask | Kempton | 46% $45 | 30mL fresh oak | pineapple sweetness | peach | caramelised orange Old Kempton | Tokay | Cask Strength | Kempton | 61.7% $48 | 30mL burnt butter | orange marmalade | subtle oak | candied fruit Old Kempton | Pinot | Cask Strength | Kempton | 64.3% $48 | 30mL cherries| cassia bark | dry tannins | roast plums Old Kempton | Sherry | Cask Strength | Kempton | 64.3% $48 | 30mL salted caramel | dark chocolate | strawberries | spiced toffee Overeem | Port 43% $27 | 30mL fruitcake | vanilla bean | rum-soaked raisins| liquorice Overeem | Port | Cask Strength | Coal River Valley| 60% $35 | 30mL spiced raisins | stewed plum | cocoa | cloves 7 Overeem | Red Wine | Coal River Valley | 43% $27 | 30mL red liquorice | barley sugar | star anise | cinnamon Overeem | Small Cask Batch | Coal River Valley | 46% $27 | 30mL orange peel | butterscotch | subtle peat | smooth finish Spring Bay Rheban | Cask Strength | Spring Beach | 58% $31 | 30mL caramel syrup| butterscotch | plum pudding | soft oak tannin Sullivans Cove | French Oak | Special Release Ex-White Wine Cask 12YO (TD0119) | Cambridge | 52.3% $90 | 30mL mandarin | ripe cherries | cocoa & coconut | soft and velvety Sullivans Cove | Double Cask (DC098) | Cambridge | 45% $28 | 30mL roasted pears | autumn fruits | caramelised orange | vanilla beans Sullivans Cove | American Oak | Unfiltered (TD0159) | Cambridge | 47.5% $40 | 30mL tangelo | caramel fudge | fine tannin | spiced cloves Sullivans Cove | French Oak | Museum Release (HH0516) | Cambridge | 47.5% $220 | 30mL dark fortified treacle | prunes in Armagnac | dark chocolate eclair 8 Australian (Mainland) Whisky A country born of turmoil, escape and the hope for a fresh start, Australia has a rich, if not troubled, history. A vast landmass stretching from the Gibson Desert in Western Australia to the Great Dividing Range in Queensland, it is impossible to quantify its incredible and unique landscape. As such it is with the whisky created on mainland Australia. The individual and unique geographical environment of each distillery combined with each distiller’s unique approach makes it difficult to categorise a national style. The fundamentals vary with each distillery: the barley may be a local variety grown for brewing or purpose- grown from paddock to bottle. The yeast can be sourced from brewing companies, imported from overseas, or a wild yeast strain. The peat might be mined or imported depending on the distillery’s location. The stills range from traditional Scottish stills to French alembic stills. The casks are often experimental, taking advantage of Australia's vast wine regions and fortified wine. It is an industry that is setting itself apart from the norm and focusing on creating a truly unique spirit. What can be quantified about Australian whisky is that it has evolved from the late 1700s grain spirits into today’s booming craft industry, with great care focused on quality whisky. 9 Bakery Hill | Classic Malt | Melbourne | 46% $32 | 30mL nutmeg | spiced honey | green apples | smooth and lingering Bakery Hill | Peated | Cask Strength| Melbourne | 60% $35 | 30mL tobacco leaf | kumquat | subtle peat | earthiness Bakery Hill | 2008 8YO | Wisp of Smoke| Melbourne | 51.7% $45 | 30mL salted caramel | steeped raisins | subtle peat | dried apple rings Fleurieu Distillery | Port Cask | 3YO | First Release | 52% $42 | 30mL autumn leaves | fruit leather | soft citrus | salted caramel Fleurieu Distillery | Atlantic Crossing | 43% $30 | 30mL Christmas cake| salted toffee | mild smoke | vanilla oak Great Southern Limeburners | M209 Peated | 48% $40 | 30mL brandy cream | boiled lollies | dark chocolate | subtle peat The Brisbane Fusion Cask Strength | Starward (AUS), Glen Garioch, Glen Grant (SCT), All Sherry Cask | 57.5% $38 | 30mL sherry sweetness | dark chocolate | stewed orchard fruit | brandy cream 10 Scottish Whisky Scotch is not only a style of whisky but an expression for a country. A remote, harsh, inexplicable and solitary country, it has three perfect elements for whisky making – peat, pure air and pure water. The first recorded reference to whisky is from 1494 in the accounting records for the royal finances, the Exchequer rolls, where an allowance was made for “eight bolls of malt to Friar John Cor wherewith to make aqua vitae”, otherwise known as whisky. The term “scotch” is trademarked and refers only to whisky from Scotland. There are five main whisky regions in Scotland: the highlands, Speyside, Lowlands, Campbeltown and Islay/ Islands. Scottish whisky is distinctly known for its smokiness given by the peat, but it can also have floral notes moving to spicy or cocoa depending on the region. The traditions of Scottish whisky date back centuries, and some of the techniques and stills have been handed down through generations of distillers. What has evolved is a passion for producing an incredible product across generations, and the ability to use technology to enhance these techniques. 11 BLEND (VATTED MALTS) Chivas Regal Ultis | Dunbartonshire | Scotland | 40% $28 | 30mL rich honey | peaches & crumbly fudge | poached pear | dark chocolate Johnnie Walker Green Label | Glasgow | Scotland | 43% $11 | 30mL creamy toffee | nougat | fig | coffee, nuts & fruit cake Monkey Shoulder| Balvenie, Glenfiddich & Kininvie | 40% $10 | 30mL floral sherry | baked pear | vanilla custard | ginger & orange marmalade LOWLANDS Bladnoch 1990 26YO | Berry Bros. & Rudd Bottling | South West Scotland | 46% $45 | 30mL rich honey | fresh barley | floral vanilla
