Full Details Westward Whiskey Bottled-In-Bond:

Westward Whiskey, the pinnacle of American whiskey, introduces its third club release of 2024, Westward Whiskey Bottled-In-Bond.

For over a century, the distinguished Bottled-In-Bond designation has held American-made whiskey’s quality, integrity, and skillful crafting to the highest standard. Made by one distiller in one season, aged at least four years in one bonded facility, and standing tall at 100 proof, Bottled-In-Bond is a badge of quality and prestige. Westward Whiskey Bottled-In-Bond goes beyond these rigorous aging requirements, proving why Oregon’s unique climate, resources, and artisans are leaders in the world of whiskey.

Matured for seven years in Oregon, warm, dry summers and cool, wet winters developed flavor and allowed for the emergence of subtle complexities. The outcome: a distinctly floral and elegant expression that proves the preeminence of the Northwest as the ideal place to raise world-class whiskey.

Master Blender Miles Munroe said, “With this expression, we set out to capture the pioneering spirit of the American Northwest while honoring a rich whiskey-making tradition. Bottled-In-Bond expertly demonstrates the maturing power of the Pacific Northwest’s climate and the skill of our blenders.”

Westward Whiskey Bottled-In-Bond was distilled in March 2017 and is bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV) and priced at $99.95. It is available for pre-order through August 6, exclusively for Whiskey Club members. To access this release, join the Westward Whiskey Club, which reaches more than 35 states across the country.

Shipping is included to more than 35 states.

Other membership perks include an annual Westward Experience, a distillery tour and tasting offering an in-depth look into Westward’s four-step production process of brewing, distillation, maturation, and mingling and a guided tasting featuring several expressions of the brand’s award-winning American single malt whiskies. Westward Whiskey Club members are invited to club-exclusive events (including an annual Founder’s Club-exclusive event) and also receive 15% off all classes, tours, ticketed events and merchandise. Expedition and Founder’s Club members receive exclusive distillery access to taste and purchase archived whiskey, rare whiskey the company has laid down in its Library from previous years.
