Westward Whiskey Unveils Two Malts Ryes in 2023
Westward Whiskey, a small-batch artisanal whiskey company, recently announced the unveiling of two new malts rye whiskeys in 2023. The company proudly produces whiskey from malted grain in whiskey barrels – an uncommon practice among other whiskey brands.
Westward’s History and Product
Westward Whiskey has a much longer history than some may realize. Founded in 1856 in Portland, Oregon, and recently acquired by a portfolio of investors, Westward Whiskey has been consistently producing high-quality whiskey ever since.
Their product selection includes a variety of whiskeys, from single malt to rye to American whiskey, and, most recently, two malts rye whiskeys. The two new malts rye whiskeys are designed to target whiskey drinkers who are looking for a smooth, craft whiskey.
New Malt Rye Whiskeys Unveiled
The two malt rye whiskeys, dubbed “Buckshot” and “Red Kite,” are made with hand-selected barley and rye, complemented by hints of sweet and spicy flavors. Buckshot, the flagship malt rye whiskey, is produced with a combination of single malt and rye malt, producing a bold flavor that is sure to please many whiskey drinkers. Red Kite, the second malt rye whiskey, is made from a unique combination of single malt and wheat malt, giving the whiskey a lighter and sweeter taste.
Both Buckshot and Red Kite are aged in charred oak barrels, giving the whiskey a unique, smoky finish. The aging process for both whiskeys is between two and five years, ensuring a consistent flavor and quality in every bottle.
Availability
The two new whiskeys are due to be released in late 2023. The release will include both bottles (750ml and 375ml), and Westward Whiskey will also be releasing a limited edition four-pack gift set.
The whiskeys will be made available in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Australia. Westward Whiskey also plans to offer the whiskeys to retailers and distributors beyond these countries in the future.
Conclusion
Westward Whiskey is proud to be releasing two new malts rye whiskeys in 2023. Their unique combination of malts, charred oak barrels, and aging process produce a smooth and distinct flavor, sure to please any whiskey drinker.
