Peat Project Sugar Kelp Ex-Bourbon Cask
Single Cask Series
Distillery Smoked with Sugar Kelp Infused Peat
Portuguese Red Wine STR Barrique
This is our "single cask" peated whisky series which allows whisky enthusiasts and new-comers alike, to explore the unique terroir of peat from a variety of peat bogs around the world. It also explores the impact of oak casks used for maturation, from a variety of wines.
Never before had any whisky distillery had the opportunity to peat smoke barley at their distillery and apply this to exploring the terroir of peat coming from Canada, the USA and Scotland, or peat infused with Pacific west-coast seaweed harvested by First Nations.
This expression was distilled using local barley peat-smoked at our distillery to 54 ppm with local Washington State peat infused with sugar-kelp seaweed. It was then fully matured in a carefully selected ex-Bourbon cask, blanketed with fresh maritime island air.
The nose has fresh sea breeze and beach-wood bonfire followed by ice cream soda, barley wine, sherbet, ripe peat, banana and red currants. It opens to vanilla fudge, white chocolate, Brazil nuts, green cardamom and sandal wood. The palate is sweet, creamy and viscous (with great legs) with sugar kelp, sweet bonfire smoke and beach tangle.

I tried this at The Barley Merchant in Langley. Excellent whisky at 46% ABV. Can't wait to try this one at 50% ABV.
