Westland Wine Cask Finish Single Malt Whiskey

Westland Wine Cask Finish is an American Single Malt from Seattle’s Westland Distillery, finished in Pacific Northwest wine casks — cabernet sauvignon, syrah, and Washington Red Blend. Aged a minimum of five years and bottled at 46% ABV.

Part of Westland’s Cask Exploration Series, the Wine Cask Finish ties the distillery’s malt whiskey to the winemaking heritage of its home region. Maturation in regional red-wine casks lends a fruit-and-floral dimension that sets it apart from conventional sherry- or bourbon-cask single malts.
