Over the years, it’s 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, there’s no formal definition for what “American single malt” means. In practice, most American single malt producers are following the Scots’ 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. “That’s the magic of what America is all about,” says Matt. “The 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, that’s the most exciting thing about the category: you get whiskeys that reflect the people and places they come from.” 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. “It’s about protecting consumers,” explains Matt. “And we want to help grow the standing of the category, not just nationally but also internationally.” That last bit is becoming more important as the world has taken notice of Westland’s success. In 2017, Remy Cointreau, an international spirits brand that also owns the Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, acquired Westland. It’s 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2023-06-01T14:25:52-04:00","created_at":"2023-04-12T10:50:36-04:00","vendor":"ConciergeUK","type":"Whiskey","tags":["NK1004","Proof_75 - 100 (37.5 - 50% ABV)","Source_ReleaseCalendars0423","Type_Whiskey"],"price":159700,"price_min":159700,"price_max":159700,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42895533146250,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Westward Whiskey Sauternes Cask","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":159700,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_a0cb4f2b-22d0-413a-ad5c-d92c6b3db8a4.jpg?v=1681311076"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_a0cb4f2b-22d0-413a-ad5c-d92c6b3db8a4.jpg?v=1681311076","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Westward Whiskey Sauternes Cask at CaskCartel.com","id":24526899282058,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.783,"height":1012,"width":792,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_a0cb4f2b-22d0-413a-ad5c-d92c6b3db8a4.jpg?v=1681311076"},"aspect_ratio":0.783,"height":1012,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_a0cb4f2b-22d0-413a-ad5c-d92c6b3db8a4.jpg?v=1681311076","width":792}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhiskey: Westward Whiskey Sauternes Cask\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWestward Whiskey Sauternes Cask is described as having aromas of “honeysuckle, white peach, orange peel, and vanilla pastry.” The palate exhibits notes of “pineapple, vibrant tropical fruits, honey-drenched peaches, ginger, light oak, and roasted nuts,” concluding with “apricot, lemon, jasmine, orange blossom, cedar, tobacco, and honey” on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL ORDERS PLACED ARE GUARANTEED\u003c\/strong\u003e and WILL NOT be cancelled like with other retailers.
