Virginia Distillery Co. American Single Malt Cabernet Cask Reserve. This expression brings together the emerging American single malt category with a finishing technique borrowed from the wine world, making it a compelling bottle for explorers of both spirits and fine wine.

Virginia Distillery Co. operates out of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, where the dramatic temperature swings between seasons accelerate barrel maturation and drive deep interaction between spirit and wood. The Cabernet Cask Reserve is finished in cabernet sauvignon wine casks, layering dark fruit character and a subtle tannic structure over the distillery's core malt whisky signature. The result is a whiskey that bridges the gap between classic American grain character and old-world wine-cask influence — a rarity in the single malt category.

This expression is well-suited for sipping neat or on a single large ice cube, where the cabernet cask influence can open gradually. It also performs beautifully in spirit-forward cocktails that benefit from dark fruit depth.
