Westward x Ken’s Artisan Sourdough Whiskey – 2020

Created in collaboration with James Beard Award-winning baker Ken Forkish, enjoy our most creative release to date.

The brainchild of Founder & Master Distiller Christian Krogstad and Forkish, Sourdough Whiskey is the fruitful conclusion of a creative brainstorm over a few glasses of AmericanWhiskey.Made from scratch using Pacific Northwest two-row barley and Forkishs sourdough levain, we fermented in-house for 13 days by far the longest and most challenging ferment weve achieved to date then double pot distilled to create the most flavorful, fruity unaged whiskey we have ever produced. The new make coming off the still was clean, crisp and full of bright floralaromas and after three years in barrel, it retains those qualities and has added a distinct passion fruit flavor.
