Virginia Distillery Co Courage & Conviction American Single Malt Whisky 50 ml

Courage & Conviction is Virginia Distillery Company's flagship American single malt, matured across three cask types — ex-bourbon, sherry, and wine casks — then married together for bottling, a triple-cask approach that sets it apart from single-cask-matured Scotch. This 50ml bottle is a sampler-sized pour of the full-size release, letting drinkers try the whisky before committing to a full bottle. Expect a layered profile that shifts between the three cask influences: vanilla and caramel from the bourbon casks, dried fruit from the sherry casks, and a fruity brightness from the wine casks. Virginia Distillery has been a leading voice in the growing American single malt category, built on 100% malted barley mashed, distilled, and matured in the U.S. It's a strong introduction to what American distillers are doing with the single malt style.

How to drink Courage & Conviction

Serve it neat to taste how the three cask types interact, especially in a small-format bottle meant for sampling. A single drop of water can help open the aromatics if you want to explore it further before deciding on a full bottle.
