Wolves Introduce American Single Malt Lot Two
Wolves Craft Distilling, an up-and-coming distillery from Los Angeles, California, has recently announced the release of their newest American Single Malt Lot Two. This special single malt whiskey has taken three years to perfect and is the result of experimentation with various roasted and smoked malts. Wolves Craft Distilling has earned a reputation for producing unique spirits with a modern interpretation of classic whiskey styles and Lot Two is no exception.
Using Local Grains
Lot Two was created using locally sourced grains. It is a blend of 65 percent Munich malt, 10 percent chocolate malt, 15 percent roasted barley, and 10 percent smoked malt. Wolves Craft Distilling was focused on creating a unique flavor that was both balanced and flavorful. After much experimentation, the team was able to create a whiskey that was rich and aromatic with smoky notes.
Double Copper Pot Still Distillation
Once the grains were selected, the spirit had to be distilled. To create Lot Two, Wolves crafted a double copper pot still to create a smooth and explosive spirit. The team used a smaller still than they usually do to create more contact between the spirit and the copper. This allowed for a more delicate distillation and a spirit that was more balanced and aromatic.
No Chill Filtration
Lot Two was created using a no-chill filtration process. This allowed for a more flavorful and intense whiskey experience. The no-chill filtration eliminates the chilling process which can strip the whiskey of its flavor and aroma. By avoiding this step, Wolves was able to create a whiskey that was more intense and flavorful.
Barrel Aging
Lot Two was then aged in small American oak barrels for three years. Wolves chose smaller barrels to increase the surface-to-liquid ratio. This allowed the whiskey to extract more of the flavor from the wood and create a more intense whiskey. Wolves also used a mix of both new and used barrels to create waves of caramel, vanilla, and smoke in the whiskey.
Tasting Notes
Lot Two has notes of sweet smoky flavor, with hints of char, roasted barley, and a hint of caramel. On the palate, you can taste hints of vanilla, leather, and caramel. The finish is smooth and well balanced. This is a whiskey that will definitely tantalize the taste buds and impress whiskey enthusiasts.
