Virginia Distillery Brewers Batch Virginia-Highland Whisky

Detailed Description

This whisky is made from 100% malted barley which includes whisky sourced from Scotland and the Virginia distillery’s own whisky distilled from a malt mash. The finishing casks used here formerly held a Wee Heavy Ale-style beer called “Stage Road”. The Virginia brewery who produced it, Three Notch’d Brewing, aged this beer in former Virginia Distilling Co.’s whisky barrels for about 12 months. Once the beer was dumped, the barrels came back to the distillery and was used to finish this whisky. Bottled at 92 proof.
