21 years ago Murph delivered a moment that transcended the sport with a lap that stopped Australia (click here if you're need a refresher). It’s one of the most iconic moments in world motorsport and we’re remembering it with the 2024 Sounds Of Bathurst release.

A collaboration between ourselves and Murph, this is a limited release that utilised our sound Sounds Of Bathurst process - where we extra-age select barrels to the sound of a V8 Supercars roaring around Bathurst. The process agitates and invigorates the whisky during maturation, creating a distinct flavour profile.

A release of just 1,600 bottles, we have released the Greg Murphy special edition at 44.8% in 700ml bottles.

Showcasing flavours of caramel, dried fruits, brown sugar, melted butter and oak, own, open, share and enjoy a piece of Supercars history.

This product is for delivery to addresses in New Zealand only. Only this product is available for NZ deliveries - you cannot combine with other NED products.

There is a flat $15 fee for NZ deliveries that covers shipment from Australia to NZ and then onto your designated address.

Orders placed will be sent to our New Zealand warehouse and dispatched by our local partner.

We expect deliveries to begin in early October, but will update customers if that changes.

Please contact us with any questions you might have.

DROP OF THE GODS

TASTING NOTES

NOSE: Caramel, dried apricot and clove, followed by butter melted onto shortbread, with a lingering cigar box and pepper aroma.

PALATE: Full-bodied with a bright grain texture, brown sugar and toffee elements are balanced by orange blossom and vanilla.

FINISH: Long and lingering, cigar box and oak elements give way to melted butter and heather.

COMMENTS: A wonderful addition to the Bathurst series, the Sound Ageing process adds a complexity in the interaction between the sweet caramel and oak notes. There's definitely NED DNA in here, but it's one of the more austere and refined releases.

A MOMENT THAT UNITED THE MOUNTAIN, CELEBRATED IN A WHISKY SHAPED BY IT

Produced from NED's unique Sounds Of Bathurst process, where barrels are extra aged to the engine noise of V8 Supercars charging around Bathurst.

A LIMITED EDITION RELEASE FROM THE AWARD WINNING SERIES

Drop Of The Gods is the fourth in the series of Sounds Of Bathurst series, which has previous won multiple Gold Medals for taste and quality.

HOW DOES THE SOUND AGEING WORK?

Hand-selected reserve grade barrels of NED Whisky were aged within a custom-built, sound-proof container at our Melbourne distillery. Powerful speakers play the distinct in-car audio of Supercars roaring around Bathurst, ensuring the sounds deeply permeated the barrels.

Our Sound Ageing projects have revealed that this unique technique enhances and highlights dark toffee and burnt maple flavours, addinggreater depth of texture to the whisky. The Drop of the Gods Edition is a testament to this meticulous and groundbreaking process.
