Westland Outpost Range Garryana 7th Edition American Single Malt Whiskey

Westland Outpost Range Garryana 7th Edition

Garryana American Single Malt Whiskey pursues true provenance with the introduction of an entirely new species of oak to the world of whiskey. In our work, we create a record of the oaks distinctive characteristics and reveal unique expressions of Pacific Northwest terroir.

Quercus garryana oak is front and center throughout the entire sip. Composed of earthy and sweet flavors, the whiskey reminds you very much of being in the woods with a smoldering campfire nearby. Peppercorn, leather, tobacco, and smoke are themes throughout, with the influence of the wine casks lending sweeter notes that try to balance things out. Its clear that using 100% quercus garryana oak would have been too overpowering, so the addition of the wine and ex-bourbon casks is appreciated. This is a malt thats multifaceted and geared toward those who like more of an earthy pour. While it carries a high price tag, its uniqueness adds intrigue and those who purchase a bottle wont have anything else like it in their collection.
