This single cask bottling of a 6 year old Westward American single malt whiskey was produced by the independent bottler Whisky Druid. The whisky was distilled in 2016, matured in a fresh oak cask and bottled at cask strength in 2023 in 218 bottles.
Whiskey production in the United States is dominated by about a dozen large distilleries, so that almost all whiskey sold comes from a single distillery, and blended whiskey is almost non-existent as a mixture of the whiskey of several distilleries.
The terms single barrel for whiskey from a single cask and small batch for whiskey from a relatively small number of casks have become established as distinguishing features.
