From the Distillery

  • “The Greenwood Cider Company resides five miles north of Westland’s distillation operation and has been barrel swapping for near five years. This Cask Exchange marks our premier presentation of a pomological pairing. A whiskey that occupies the liminal space between “finishing” and “secondary” maturation. A dissolution of hierarchy at the trichotomous threshold of malt, oak, and apple. A consubstantiality worth contemplation if only to escape these catacombic staff notes.”
  • Tasting Notes
    • Nose: “Fresh fuji apple, butterscotch candy, apricot, graham cracker crust.”
    • Palate: “Toasted oats, allspice, Red Delicious apple skin, pastry dough.”
