Westland Solum Edition 3
American Single Malt
Westland // Washington, USA
RARE
The third edition of Solum was made much like the previous edition, but this 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 in the distillation process, it was then aged in a combination of new and used casks including refill Westland casks. Just 5,700 bottles are available globally with a launch in key markets beginning January 2025. (SRP $149.

Tasting Notes
"The nose is a sweet, smoky, fruity mix of burning herbs (rosemary, sage, thyme), smoked apple, smoked almonds, and bittersweet chocolate. The medium-weight palate malt, chocolatey, and earthy (like oolong tea) with more of those smoked fruit and herb qualities. The finish has a balanced, mild salinity that weaves through the sweet, apple-y smoke, with puffs of pipe tobacco and dried wildflowers. "
