Distillery Information
Westland Distillery was founded in 2010. Over the years, itâs become one of the leaders of a new movement of whiskey producers aiming to introduce a new category to the U.S. market: American single malt. Unlike bourbon, rye, or corn whiskey, thereâs no formal definition for what âAmerican single maltâ means. In practice, most American single malt producers are following the Scotsâ lead by using the term to refer to a whiskey made from 100% malted barley and distilled at a single distillery. Beyond that, innovation is rampant. Some distillers are using new, charred American oak casks to age their single malt (much like bourbon), while others are opting for the more traditional used cooperage. Some are experimenting with smoked malt, using not just peat but local fuels like mesquite or pecan wood to add another layer of flavor. âThatâs the magic of what America is all about,â says Matt. âThe difference in landscape and cultures. A whiskey from Seattle and a whiskey from Portland might be more similar in terms of raw materials and interpretation than a whiskey from Texas or New England. To me, thatâs the most exciting thing about the category: you get whiskeys that reflect the people and places they come from.â As American single malt continues to catch on, Westland and other distillers like them have formed an industry group called the American Single Malt Whiskey Commission dedicated to promoting the category as well as establishing formal standards of identity, just like other styles of whiskey. âItâs about protecting consumers,â explains Matt. âAnd we want to help grow the standing of the category, not just nationally but also internationally.â That last bit is becoming more important as the world has taken notice of Westlandâs success. In 2017, Remy Cointreau, an international spirits brand that also owns the Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, acquired Westland. Itâs good company for this single malt leader be in; much like acclaimed Scotch whisky producer Bruichladdich, Westland is dedicated to preserving the best of the past while striding fearlessly into the future.
