- Description
- Weetwood's first-release English single malt was made with English malted barley, initially matured in shaved, toasted and re-charred American oak quarter casks, then finished in European oak at 46% ABV. The combined cask influence creates complexity—toasted oak spice balanced against soft malt character—while the dual maturation adds depth and texture. A notable marker for English whisky's emerging character and craft.
