WestlandAmericanOakSingleMaltWhiskey(700mL)

<p>True Wild West Single Malt.</p><p>Not far away from Elliott Bay, a bold new distillery was established in 2010 by two childhood friends: Master Distiller <em>Matt Hoffman</em> and CEO <em>Emerson Lamb</em>. They called it <em>Westland Distillery </em>and their Spirits embody the nature of the Pacific Northwest. Matt, as many other Whiskey-makers, went to Scotland and absolutely fell in love with the Single Malt. The distillery’s two <em>copper pot stills</em> create the core American Single Malt Whiskey, which is made using malted barley, at a single distillery, just like in Scotland – except American laws are laxer and allow more <em>experimentation</em>.</p><p><em>Westland American Oak Single Malt Whiskey</em> is made from five marvellous roasted and kilned barley malts – barley is of course grown in the state of Washington. Then, there’s a not-so-secret secret: specialty malts are added before the final mash is fermented with a Belgian brewer’s yeast for six day. The Spirit is matured in a combo of Cooper’s Select New American Oak, Cooper’s Reserve New American Oak, and first fill ex-bourbon barrels. American Oak Single Malt won <em>multiple awards,</em> including a <em>Gold Medal</em> at Beverage Tasting Institute, while Jim Murray have it <em>95 points</em>.</p>
