Westland Outpost Range Garryana 9th Edition American Single Malt Whiskey
Crafted in Seattle, Washington, Westland Garryana 9th Edition continues the distillery’s bold exploration of Pacific Northwest terroir through the rare Quercus garryana oak. This species, indigenous to the region, lends a distinct intensity and depth to the whiskey, setting it apart from conventional American single malts. The ninth edition showcases a maturation that balances tradition and innovation, resting at least five years in a mix of Garry Oak, first-fill ex-bourbon, and ex-Oloroso sherry casks. The nose reveals a smoky sweetness of burnt marshmallow layered with mocha and almond cream, while biscuit notes add a warm, comforting undertone. On the palate, it’s a rich dance between spice and softness—clove, cinnamon stick, and peppermint tea cut through the creamy texture of bread pudding. The interplay of lighter malts and sherry-aged brightness against the bold oak brings out both elegance and edge in every sip. Made from a Washington-grown grain bill of Pale, Munich, Extra Spe
