Virginia Distillery Co. Port Cask Reserve American Single Malt Whisky
Crafted in the heart of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, the Port Cask Reserve American Single Malt from Virginia Distillery Co. represents a rich convergence of Old World tradition and New World innovation. Made entirely from 100% malted barley, this whisky begins its journey in first-fill ex-bourbon casks before being elegantly finished in a selection of tawny port casks from Portugal and local Virginia port-style wine casks. The dual-cask influence imparts a depth of character and complexity that speaks to both heritage and craftsmanship.
On the nose, it opens with warm aromas of honeycomb, roasted walnuts, and a nostalgic touch of gingerbread. The palate follows through with vibrant notes of lemon zest, tart red berries, and a subtle wisp of smoke, all grounded by a silky layer of cocoa. The port cask finish adds a delicate richness, rounding off the malt with a refined sweetness and a long, expressive finish. At 46.5% ABV, it offers a bold yet approachable drinking experience that remains true to its artisanal roots.
Best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water to unlock its layered profile, this American Single Malt is a fine choice for both the seasoned whisky drinker and the curious newcomer. Whether sipped slowly by the fire or shared in a thoughtful tasting, the Port Cask Reserve is a true celebration of Virginia terroir and thoughtful maturation.
