Built from 100% malted barley, the whiskey is first aged in ex-bourbon barrels before being finished across five different wine casks—including Port, Madeira, and estate-grown wine barrels—then married into a single expression. Bottled at full cask strength, it delivers a rich, layered, and fruit-forward profile that blends American single malt structure with wine-driven complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCedar Ridge The QuintEssential Special Release Number 5 Single Malt Whiskey Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Malted sweetness, dark berries, raisin, vanilla, toasted oak, and subtle wine-driven fruit richness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePalate:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Full-bodied and complex with notes of red fruit, caramel, maple sweetness, baking spice, and a balanced influence of wine tannin and malt.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Long and structured with lingering dark fruit, spice, oak warmth, and a slightly vinous, elegant fade.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDistillery Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCedar Ridge Distillery, based in Iowa and founded in the early 2000s, is one of the pioneers of American craft whiskey in the Midwest. Known for its grain-to-glass approach, the distillery controls every step of production, using locally grown grains and estate wines to create distinctive spirits. The QuintEssential series represents their most experimental work, led by Master Blender Murphy Quint, focusing on complex cask finishing and blending techniques. Number 5 holds special significance, reflecting both the family name “Quint” and the distillery’s history tied to the number five. Each release in the series is unique, but this edition stands out for its ambitious use of five different finishing casks, pushing the boundaries of American single malt whiskey. It’s widely regarded as a bold, modern expression—rich, layered, and built for enthusiasts seeking something truly distinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ConciergeUK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47884112101514,"sku":null,"price":346.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/2_862f317d-dc13-4687-abb1-33670fad2e24.webp?v=1774704800","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/en-lu\/products\/cedar-ridge-the-quintessential-special-release-number-5-single-malt-whiskey","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
