From the Distillery
- “Westland Outpost Range whiskey Garryana is a series that explores a native species of oak for barrel aging. In Edition 7, the rich and savory Garry Oak interacts with sturdy Washington Wine. The high percentage of both cask types result in a mélange of spices and savory fruits”
- Tasting Notes
- Nose: “Blackberry compote, clove, pizza crust, apple turnover.”
- Palate: “Molasses, charred cedar, black currant, dry apple cider.”
On the box
- “Charting Our New West: For centuries, a well-charted tradition in whiskey has established a covenant about how it is made. But there is another, decidedly American, tradition to uphold - to challenge accepted conventions with the conviction that there is always more to be discovered. We believe that the world of whiskey is not flat and that it is time to step beyond what we have inherited. We find ourselves at the edge of a new frontier, but the edge is not the end of what we know, it is just the beginning of what we have yet to explore. Garryana pursues true provenance with the introduction of an entirely new species of oak to the world of whiskey. In our work we create a record of the oak’s distinctive characteristics and reveal unique expressions of Pacific Northwest terroir. Each release marks a new outpost in our ongoing exploration of the vast frontier of whiskey. Our West Is Whiskey.”
