Westland, Garryana 5th Edition, Single Malt Whiskey, USA (50%)
- USA Whiskey
Product: 10008233459
70 cl Bottle
Description
This steadfast whiskey, aged in barrels from the great Quercus Garryana tree, is not as unmoving as the great oak would imply. The lightly peated spirit matures in a combination of untouched Garryana casks and first fill ex-bourbon casks. This gives a nose of smokey hay, maple berry compote, golden chocolate and all spice. What’s promised on the nose delivers with great gusto on the palate with additional touches of ground coffee, cacao and rye bread.

About this spirit
Westland Distillery
Westland Distillery was founded in Seattle in 2010 by Matt Hoffman and Emerson Lamb. Since its inception, Matt has been their Master Distiller, a post he holds to this day. The team at Westland are driven by a philosophy that places barley at the heart of their whisky-making. Their vision is to produce exceptional spirits that are truly reflective of their Pacific Northwest environment, while benefiting everyone involved in the production process. Barley, they believe, is one of the central components behind this (alongside the use of oak and peat).
