Hellyers Road Dark FOMO Dark Harmony 5 Baltic Porter Cask Finish Tasmanian Single Malt Whisky

Dark FOMO is the fifth release in our Dark Harmony series and arguably the one that leans hardest into its muse. Timed to coincide with Tasmania's gloriously unhinged Dark Mofo festival, it takes everything the series does well and drags it somewhere a little darker, a little stranger. Dark Harmony has always explored that space where opposites collide. Dark FOMO is our love letter to the tension, and this year it has a seat at the feast. This release began its journey in two first fill American oak ex-bourbon casks, filled on 22 February 2018. After initial maturation, the whisky was finished in two American oak ex-bourbon casks seasoned with Communion’s Baltic Porter Beer. The two casks were then married together on 23 April 2026, with marrying cask 1 prepared for bottling to produce this unique 8 year old single malt whisky. TASTING NOTES NOSE Deep notes of chocolate and coffee are lifted by fizzy lemonade and raspberry jam croissant. Time in the glass rewards, revealing a subtle earthiness adding layers of complexity. PALATE Robust intensity across the palate with toasted oak, dark chocolate and roasted malts. A whisper of smoke adds depth, alongside coffee-caramel confectionery notes. FINISH A lingering complexity invites further exploration.
