American Single Malt Whiskies

Whiskies made by Westland Distillery are fermented for 144 hours with Belgian Brewer's Yeast.

Core Range

Core range whiskies are aged a minimum of 24 months and sold at 46% abv.

American Oak

Westland's flagship American Single Malt Whiskey. This recipe, known as 5-malt, contains Washington select pale malt (70%), Munich malt (9%), Extra Special malt (13%), Brown malt (4%), and Pale Chocolate malt (4%). The spirit is aged predominantly in American Oak (Coopers Select, Cooper's Reserve) and occasionally 1st Fill Ex-Bourbon casks.

Sherry Wood

Sherry Wood utilizes the same 5-Malt grain bill as American Oak, but derives it's name from the addition of spirit aged in Ex-Oloroso and Ex-Pedro Ximénez hogsheads and butts.
