If you've tried any other St. George distillate, you owe it to yourself to taste the spirit that compelled master distiller Lance Winters to start distilling in the first place. (If you can get your hands on a bottle, that is.) Lance's brewing background strongly informed our whiskey's mash bill-using various roast levels of two-row barley to elicit rich aromas of hazelnut and cocoa, and smoking a portion of unroasted barley over beech and alder wood to add base notes and additional complexity. The resulting whiskey is expressive and inviting right off the still, but a variety of cooperage types contribute an even greater depth of flavor-creating a layered single malt with a signature all its own.
