As an American Single Malt, Westward has reimagined what Single Malt can be, brewing it like a pale ale, distilling it like a traditional Single Malt, and aging it like a bourbon; the result is a robust spirit -the pinnacle of American whiskey. A celebration of Oregon’s legendary brewing culture, this whiskey honors the company’s brewing roots and grew out of a longstanding cask-trading tradition with Northwest craft beer producers. For as long as Westward has been making whiskey, they’ve traded their freshly-emptied barrels with some of their brewing collaborators. They have in turn “seasoned” them with Stout before returning them again. The Stout Cask Finish pushes the boundaries of flavor. It begins with the Westward American Single Malt, and is then aged for one year in Stout casks. It is rich and robust, with notes of roasted grain and stone fruit. Flavors include toasted pecan and milk chocolate, with a bold, dry finish.
