The Westward American Single Malt Stout Cask is a rich and nutty whiskey from the renowned Westward distillery, showcasing Oregon's legendary brewing culture. This whiskey is the result of Westward's long-standing tradition of cask-trading with local breweries, as it is finished in ex-stout casks for a year. The nose is filled with aromas of ripe plums, dark roasted malt, coffee, and creamy cereals. The palate offers a symphony of flavors including pecans, milk chocolate, walnuts, hazelnuts, dried figs, and vanilla that linger in the finish.
The nose is further enhanced with notes of cinnamon, orange peel, and ripe cherries, while the palate presents a slightly bitter taste with prominent notes of espresso and dark chocolate that lead into a warm and malty finish. This whiskey is a unique expression of Westward's signature single malt, finished in stout casks for a year, resulting in a wonderfully distinctive flavor profile.
The ABV (Alcohol By Volume) is 46%.

The Westward American Single Malt Stout Cask has received mixed reviews. Some appreciate the rich and nutty flavors with hints of caramel and grain, though others find the beer influence and fruity notes to be minimal. The nose is noted for its slight alcohol sting and fruity undertones, while the taste is described as having bitter notes with very little fruit. The finish is slightly dry with a lack of sweetness or fruit. Overall, the consensus is that it is an average whiskey with more exciting alternatives available on the market.
