Cedar Ridge The Quintessential American 750ml
About this bottle
Cedar Ridge The QuintEssential American is an American single malt whiskey from Cedar Ridge Distillery in Swisher, Iowa, made from 100% malted barley and blended using a solera process overseen by master blender Murphy Quint. The whiskey matures first in American oak, then finishes across a mix of cask types before blending, which builds layers rather than a single straightforward profile — think malty sweetness, dried fruit, and toasted oak stacked on top of each other. It's bottled at 92 proof, giving it enough weight to stand up to a splash of water. A solid pick for whiskey drinkers curious about the American single malt category beyond bourbon and rye.
How to drink Cedar Ridge The QuintEssential American
Pour it neat first to catch the layered cask finishes, then add a drop of water if you want the malty sweetness to open up further. It's rich enough to hold its own on the rocks too.
