Finished in Magdalena Rum casks, an all-natural, cane-to-glass Guatemalan rum created by the Westward Whiskey team from the finest possible ingredients and a low, slow fermentation process, this American Whiskey offers tropical and fruity notes to complement the signature bold, robust flavors of our whiskeys\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottled at 50% ABV \/ 100 proof.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eClover honey, butterscotch, herbal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTropical fruit, white peach, coconut.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTangerine, molasses, waffle cone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eAll manner of dried fruit and nuts make for a pleasant nose right off the bat; there’s dried apricot, raisin, date, candied nuts, and Fig Newton. Linger over the glass a while longer, and more soft sweetness emerges, ranging from rum raisin ice cream—fitting, given this American single malt’s finish in casks that held rum created by the Westward team—to maple candies. On the palate, these flavors persist, and they’re accented by a fantastically rich texture. More rum raisin on the finish, though a pop of coffee flavor also appears—it’s a delicious and delightful dram!\"\u003c\/em\u003e - Julia Higgins, Whisky Advocate (93 Points)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBuilding off a 100% malt base, sweet complementary rum flavors add depth to this American single malt.\"\u003c\/em\u003e - Nick Beiter, Breaking Bourbon (Well Above Average)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eEven though the single malt characteristics come through, they are beautifully accompanied by the flavors the rum (and ex-bourbon) cask brings out.
