Have you ever had a Garry Oak matured whisky?

A clearer picture of Garry oak is beginning to take shape. Westland have begun to answer a number of questions already with their early releases. Edition 5 has a higher percentage of Garry Oak casks than any previous edition, and combining a pale malt spirit with only peated spirit, it’s also the simplest in construction.

The maturation was broken down to Ex-Bourbon (64%), Garry Oak (36%)

Such simplicity masks a quality and a pairing of unique flavours of each to create something new.

Released November 2020.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A sweet fragrance of cottonwood serves as the greeting followed by Waffles, cereal and rich smoked chocolate notes.

Palate: Signature barbecue notes are front and center. It’s spicy and savory, reminiscent of burnt ends. Along with it are notes of cacao butter, charred maple wood, and clove.
