Just 60 bottles of Westward’s limited edition American Single Malt Pinot Noir Cask Finish are arriving on Australian shores.
Westward Oregon Pinot Noir Cask Finish is made from scratch at our Portland distillery using Pacific Northwest two-row barley, brewed with American pale ale yeast for outstanding flavour, double pot distilled for exceptional character, and matured in 2-char, kiln dried 53-gallon new American oak barrels. Once fully matured, we finished this batch of whiskey for 19 months in French Oak wine casks that had previously held Pinot Noir from Suzor Wines.
The whiskey will be available from The Oak Barrel Sydney and Cambridge Cellars Melbourne.
