At Fleurieu Distillery, barrels do more than mature whisky, they carry stories. Mary Ann sits at the heart of the Matriarch Series, a collection of cask strength whiskies drawn from 225L barrels named in honour of the formidable women who shaped the family behind the distillery.

This release pays tribute to Gareth’s Welsh grandmother, Mary Ann Watkins. Small in stature but immense in presence, she was born in 1906 and trained as a bespoke tailor through London’s polytechnics. During the hardships of World War II, she kept her household resilient and resourceful, teaching women at night school how to transform worn garments into clothing for their children. Her influence was practical, generous, and enduring.

Crafted from peated malt sourced from Crisp Maltings in the UK, then distilled, matured, and bottled at Fleurieu, this cask strength whisky carries both weight and warmth. It is a confident, character driven expression that honours resilience, skill, and quiet strength. A fitting salute to a woman whose legacy still lingers in every pour.

Product information

Fleurieu Distillery

Family run South Australian distillery grounded in heritage, patience, and a deep sense of place.

Fleurieu Distillery is built on storytelling as much as spirit. Based in South Australia, the distillery focuses on small scale production, traditional methods, and natural presentation, allowing each whisky to reflect both craft and character. Central to their identity is the Matriarch Series, a collection of whiskies named in honour of the women who shaped the family’s history, anchoring each release in meaning as well as flavour. Fleurieu whiskies are bold, textural, and deliberate, favouring cask strength bottlings that reward attention and celebrate time, resilience, and legacy.
