Westland Distillery Wine Cask Finish American Single Malt Batch No 1 Red WineWestland is a leader in the American single malt scene, and this whiskey is a step forward for the style. For its wine cask finish, Westland uses cabernet sauvignon, syrah, petit verdot, red blend, and tempranillo casks to create new depth. The nose is jammy with blackberries, raspberries, and baked apples. Grain sweetness and banana bread emerge with time. The sip shows apples, pecans, apricots, buttered popcorn, and vanilla malt. On the finish,
versatility and control in cocktail creation while maintaining the smooth
pear and melon flavors that persist throughout a lingering finish refreshed by vibrant citrus and mineral tones
Each bottle remains unblended
The toasted Hungarian oak imparts a depth of spice and a touch of robustness
and brought forward only when the moment feels right
but for those rye lovers who love a lot of spice with the slightest bit of sweet
