Notes
In celebration of our 40th Anniversary, Westerly Wonders features two distinct malts from Distillery 149 - one peated, one unpeated and both distilled using barley from the owner’s estate. The superb whisky on offer here represents each style produced. Cask No. 149.3 A walk in the woods was aged full term in a 1st fill PX butt displaying equal measures of earth, chocolate and vanilla before kicking the sherry into high gear with ginger spice, raisins and clove-spiked orange appeal. Its peated companion Cask No. 149.6 Recipe for success boasts a mouth-coating richness of smoky meats, maple syrup and citrus accents. Full term in a 1st fill Oloroso butt pair perfectly with the highland peat. A beautifully tasty mouthful with complexities that oscillate between sweet and savoury in a most charming fashion. Slàinte!
If ordered separately: Cask No. 149.3= $140; Cask No. 149.6= $155.
