Raising Glasses Yowie Strikes Back 17 Year Beenleigh Australian Single Cask Rum
Raising Glasses returns to the wild heart of Queensland with Yowie Strikes Back, a 17-year-old single cask rum distilled at Beenleigh Artisan Distillers. This rare Australian expression, bottled at a fierce 138 proof, is the matured and mightier sibling to the original Yowie, still powered by the pre-2010 Schizosaccharomyces pombe yeast strain that imparts its distinctive eucalyptus and stone fruit character. Aged entirely in oak, it channels the primal depth of its origins while showcasing remarkable refinement.
On the nose, waves of floral eucalyptus and dried apricot lead into a palate that builds with wild honey, white pepper, and a smoky dry matchstick finish. The time in barrel has rounded off the rum's edges, giving it more composure without stripping its feral intensity. Each sip walks the line between beastly strength and elegant restraint, offering seasoned rum drinkers a thrilling ride through complex, evolving flavors.
At 69.1% ABV, this single cask spirit is not for the faint of heart and is best enjoyed with a splash of water or a large rock to tease out its layered profile. Whether savored neat or in contemplative company, Yowie Strikes Back captures the untamed essence of Australian rum with a new edge of sophistication.
