Local brewers and distillers worked together to craft this grain-to-glass whiskey; a limited-edition spirit soaked in tradition and forged through innovation. Single malt whiskey is distilled from one type of malt (it’s almost always malted barley) under the roof of one distillery. It’s a style commonly associated with Scotch and Irish whiskies but there is currently a movement underway to establish single malt whiskey as its own official category here in the United States. This is a collaborative project with our friends at Firestone Walker Brewing Company. They made a mash with the same premium- quality grains they use to brew their award-winning beer, sour-fermented it with native yeasts and bacteria, and then sent it to us to distill and age for over 3 years in charred American oak barrels.
