Westland Distillery American Single Malt Finished in a Red Wine Cask 8 Years Old

We hand-selected this cask from Westland Distillery in Seattle, Washington. A transformative voice in American single malt, Westland is on the forefront of creating whiskey that truly reflects where it’s made. In Westland’s case, that’s the Pacific Northwest, which has a unique climate offering growing conditions for grain and maturation conditions for whiskey unlike anywhere else in the world. This, our second cask from Westland, shows a different side of the distillery. Like the first, this is made from Westland’s signature five-malt recipe. It was aged for five years in new oak, then finished for 3 years in a Washington Cabernet Sauvignon wine cask. The finish amplifies the fruity, spicy flavors of the whiskey. Soft and rounded with a lot of spice, it has flavors of black raspberry, soft oak, apple cider donuts, and black cherry ice cream.Cask & Collection: Lost Lantern 2023 Single Cask #2, Spring 2023Proof: Natural cask strength, 107.68Quantity Produced: 185 bottlesFormat: 750m
