A Bold Pacific Northwest Expression – Westland Garryana 8th Edition American Single Malt Whiskey
Westland Garryana 8th Edition is a limited-release American single malt whiskey that showcases the unique influence of Quercus garryana, a native oak of the Pacific Northwest. Bottled at 50% ABV (100 proof), this expression combines traditional American single malt characteristics with innovative aging techniques.
