Westland 'Wine Cask Finish' American Single Malt Whiskey hails from Seattle, Washington, where the Westland Distillery is renowned for its innovation and craftsmanship in American whiskey. This expression is part of their ongoing exploration into the rich possibilities of single malt, using traditional methods with a distinctly American approach. Aged in casks that previously held wine, it brings a unique influence from both the grain and the barrel.

On the palate, this whiskey offers a rich tapestry of flavors, blending the robust malt character with subtle notes from the wine-soaked wood. Expect layers of dark fruit, such as blackberries and plums, paired with toasted oak, spices, and a hint of caramel. The finish is long and smooth, with lingering tannins from the wine cask contributing a dry, slightly tart complexity. 

Made from locally sourced malted barley and fermented using a combination of yeast strains, this whiskey is best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to open up its nuanced flavors. It captures the spirit of Pacific Northwest craftsmanship while honoring the heritage of single malt whiskey.
