Westward Whiskey
American Single Malt
ABV: 45%
Pack Size: 6 x 70cl
Country of Origin: Portland, USA
Production:
Westward begins by brewing an artisanal American pale ale from scratch, using locally malted barley, ale yeast, and slow, low temperature fermentation. The ale is distilled twice in custom low-reflux copper pot stills that are designed to create a robust spirit, andtransform the fresh beer into whiskey. Westward is aged to perfection at a relatively low proof in new, lightly toasted American oak barrels. Once aged to taste, the distilling team mingles fully-matured barrels in small batches to achieve the whiskey’s signature flavourprofile – balanced and bold, with just the right amount of spice and sweetness.
