NED The Wanted Series (Ingenuity) Limited Edition 500ml

The INGENUITY of NED is the latest and final release from The Wanted Series, a premium range of Australian whiskies from the NED Barrel House.

Inspired by the ingenuity of Ned Kelly, our Master Distillers enhanced the flavour profile of this whisky by hand-selecting barrels with flavours of soft vanilla, milk chocolate and citrus fruit before maturing the whisky over char toasted wooden blocks.

This unique approach makes Ingenuity our most bold and balanced whisky of the series.

Fresh oak, toffee and dried fruit. Citrus aroma adds complexity. Elegant and complex body to compliment drinking neat on ice. Ideal to pair with chocolate mousse, fruit tart or even a Christmas pudding.

THE TALE OF INGENUITY

On the morning of Ned Kelly’s eventual capture, he emerged from the fog at the Glenrowan Inn, in a hand-crafted armour suit and iconic helmet. Officers at the time thought Kelly and his gang were ghosts through the thick fog. The gang grabbed their rifles and shot at the ambushing police officers. They were protected by their ingenuitive armour and fought to guard their honour.
