Cider Barrel Matured Virginia Highland Malt Whiskey

Virginia Distillery Company's Cider-Barrel Matured Virginia Highland Malt Whisky is the first in a new lineup dubbed the Commonwealth Collection, each of which showcases a partnership with another Virginia producer. Here, used Potter's Craft Cider barrels finish the whiskey, a blend of Scottish Highland malt whisky and Virginia-made whiskey from a malt mash. Offered annually in limited availability at the distillery, and elsewhere in Virginia as well as Washington, D.C. First batch released October 2016.

Cider Barrel Matured Virginia Highland Malt Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: Notes of vanilla, apple and pear are evident on the nose, as well a slight hint of caramel.

Palate: On the palate, some creaminess and sweetness from the malt, along with caramelized wood sugars from the oak, melds with a pleasant touch of acidity from the cider barrel.

Finish: A long and smooth finish opens up larger, offering a range of sherry-influenced citrus, zest, and spice, all laced with baked apples.
