Westland Sherry Wood Whiskey

Westland Sherry Wood is an American single malt whiskey from Westland Distillery in Seattle, Washington, an expression that balances the bold character of the Pacific Northwest with the rich influence of Spanish sherry. Rather than being finished in sherry wood, this whiskey is matured in former Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks, which bring depth and sweetness to the spirit, and it is bottled at 46% ABV.

On the nose, rich notes of honey-dipped oatmeal raisin cookies are followed by maple syrup drizzled over banana pancakes. The palate opens with kiwi alongside more maple and raisin syrup, developing into an array of sweet cookies and pastries that grow darker and richer with time, before stewed yellow fruits take over on the finish. A compelling exploration of flavour for both Scotch enthusiasts and American whiskey drinkers.
