Westland – COLERE 2nd Edition (2022)
Westland – COLERE (2nd Edition)
American Single Malt | 2022 Release | Limited Edition | 700ml | 50% alc.
The Colere 2nd Edition is the continuation of one of Westland's most innovative projects. Colere is all about the future of grain: rare, uncommercialized barley varieties that are rarely used for whisky anywhere else in the world. The focus isn't on cask influence, but on pure grain character and terroir .
For this edition, Westland is working with two special varieties, including the old malting barley Talisman , which produces a completely different flavour profile than standard commercial barley.
Flavor profile
-
Nose: fresh grain, citrus oil, spicy malts
-
Taste: honey, spiciness, soft wood, floral accents and mineral depth
-
Finish: clear, clean, slightly fruity and remarkably elegant

Strong.
The Outpost Range (Garryana – Colere – Solum) is gaining international recognition. All previous editions, especially the first generations, are steadily increasing in value. A wonderful addition for collectors of American single malt.
