Westward American Single Malt Whiskey 750ml
Portland, Oregon. Ale Yeast Fermentation. New American Oak.
Westward Whiskey is a Portland, Oregon craft distillery that has built one of the most distinctive American single malt programs in the country — using an ale yeast fermentation process borrowed from the Pacific Northwest's legendary craft brewing culture to develop a uniquely fruity, complex malt character before distillation. Made from 100% malted barley and aged in new American oak barrels, Westward delivers a rich, fruit-forward profile that is both familiar to single malt lovers and refreshingly different from anything produced in Scotland. A genuinely Pacific Northwest expression of the single malt tradition.

- Finish: Warm and lingering with notes of oak, vanilla, and subtle spice
