Westland, American Oak, Single Malt Whiskey, USA (46%)
- USA Whiskey
Description
Perhaps Westland’s most important bottling is their signature American Oak where provenance and terroir are to the fore. Brassy gold in the glass, honey, vanilla and caramelised banana leap out of the glass alongside lifted floral notes. On the palate notes of treacle, apple, cinnamon and vanilla evolve into tarte tatin and strudel, ending on a long coffee, praline note. Nowhere is Westland’s vision more prominent, than here: American oak, American Barley, American flavour profiles. Each sip transports me one step closer to the Space Needle and Washington’s great National Parks.

About this spirit
Westland Distillery
Barley
Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
