St. George Single Malt Whiskey 750mL

St. George Single Malt Whiskey is one of the most respected and influential American single malts, handcrafted at St. George Spirits in Alameda, California. Distilled from 100% malted barley—including smoked and specialty malts—and aged in a mix of used bourbon, French oak, port, and sherry casks, each release (known as a Lot) showcases a slightly unique and evolving character.

Rich, layered, and artisanal, St. George’s single malt is often described as the “craft whiskey lover’s whiskey”, offering bold flavor with finesse and complexity well beyond its age.

Q: How should I enjoy it?
A: Best sipped neat to appreciate the intricate layers. A splash of water can help open up even more complexity.
