Spring Bay Apera or Tawny Cask is a Tasmanian single malt from Spring Bay Distillery matured in casks previously used for Apera or Tawny — two Australian fortified wine styles. Apera is the regulated Australian designation for sherry-style fortified wine (dry to medium), while Tawny is an Australian-style aged fortified comparable to tawny port, made predominantly from Grenache or Muscat and aged using a solera or similar fractional blending system. Either or both cask types contribute characteristic notes of dried fruit, caramel, nutty oak, and orange peel to the Tasmanian single malt spirit. Bottled at 46% ABV without chill-filtration in a 700mL format.

Spring Bay Distillery was founded in 2015 by Cam and Suzy Brett on Tasmania's East Coast — a region known for pristine coastal environments and clean mineral water. The distillery operates across two sites: an original cellar door overlooking Spring Beach on the Tasman Peninsula, and a larger grain-to-glass production facility built in Cambridge, near Hobart, in 2019. Cam and Suzy Brett combined more than 20 years of personal whisky passion with a professional commitment to single malt production. Spring Bay's whisky uses east coast rainwater and a 2,500-litre copper pot still. The distillery has won the Icons of Whisky Awards for Global Visitor Attraction of the Year and Craft Producer of the Year.
