Westland Solum Edition 2
American Single Malt
Westland // Washington, USA
The second edition of Solum was made much like the 1st edition, but this American single malt whiskey was matured for a year longer. The peat used here was harvested approx. 2 hours south of Seattle and was harvested in a sustainable manner to ensure the health of the bog for future harvests.
Using 100% Skagit Valley Malting peated malted barley (8-12 ppm) in the distillation process, it was then aged in the following cask types: Cooper's Reserve new American oak, Cooper's Select new American oak, and first-fill bourbon barrels. Just 5,212 bottles are available globally with a launch in February 2023. (SRP $149.

Tasting Notes
"Fireplace shows up early on the nose, along with cherrywood, black pepper, vanilla pudding, and green-herbal characteristics. On the palate, find barrel char, peat smoke side by side with fresh, wet soil, macerated berries, and dark chocolate brownies. The finish offer a simmering mesquite BBQ type smoke, along with tannic oak and sour cherries."
