The Peat Project™: Washington Peat Ex-Bourbon Cask

$109.99

From our ‘peated’ single malt range, this island whisky undergoes double distillation using traditional Scottish methods, uses only the finest localmalted barley and is uniquely peat-smoked at the distillery – a practiceexclusive to a select few. Our patient, purposeful distillation yields acomplex, layered, and balanced ‘clearach’ (new-make spirit). Renowned whisky maturation expert Dr. Swan has lauded the original newmake fromour copper pot stills as’the best I have tasted in any distillery at this stage,super fruity.’

From our ‘peated’ single malt range, this island whisky uses traditional Scottish methods. This is the world’s first exploration of whisky terrior using peat from different countries.

Distilled using local barley peat-smoked at our distillery to 54 ppm with local peat from the Olympic Peninsula. It was then fully matured in a carefully selected Bourbon cask, blanketed with fresh maritime island air.

This single cask allows comparison with other peat terroirs, and across our range of wine, virgin oak and Bourbon casks.

Nose: Sweet American oak, wildflower meadow and honeycomb leading to butterscotch and nutmeg. Finishing to fresh sea breeze and beach-wood bonfire with oiled oak and smoked heather.

 

Palate: Velvety with crème caramel, lemon tart, ripe peaches, raisins, milk chocolateand sweet peat smoke. The lingering finish has a hint of hickory-smoked bacon, cellared oak, and bonfire leading to ocean-spray salt.
