Product Description
VHW Cider Cask Finished Whisky, made from 100% malted barley, marrying American Single Malt whisky made in Virginia with aged Scotch malt whisky, yielding a distinguished and complex spirit and finishing in Cider Casks..
With each new release of VHW Cider Cask Finished Whisky, they work with a local Virginia cidery, including Potter’s Craft Cider and Buskey Cider. The whisky is finished in these cider casks for an additional 8 to 20 months.
Notes of vanilla, apple and pear are evident on the nose. On the palate, soft creaminess and sweetness from the malt mingle with caramelized wood sugars from the oak, pairing nicely with a touch of acidity from the cider barrel.
VHW Cider Cask Finished Whisky was awarded a Top 20 Whisky of 2018 from Whisky Advocate. Enjoy neat, with a cube or a splash of water or in your favorite Fall-inspired cocktail.
Nose: Apple, vanilla and toasted pecan
Palate: Honeycomb, vanilla and butterscotch coat the palate
