Westland 'Beer Cask Finish' American Single Malt Whiskey hails from Seattle, Washington, where the distillery is known for its innovative approach to American single malts. This expression showcases the creative use of casks previously used to age craft beer, adding a unique layer of complexity to the whiskey.
The whiskey offers a rich blend of flavors, including malted barley sweetness, hints of roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and caramel, complemented by subtle hoppy notes from the beer casks. The palate evolves with touches of dried fruit, spices, and toasted oak, creating a full-bodied and well-rounded finish.
Crafted from locally sourced malted barley, it embodies the Pacific Northwest's spirit of collaboration between brewers and distillers. Best enjoyed neat to appreciate its intricate layers, it also works well with a splash of water or in whiskey-forward cocktails that highlight its depth.
