Westward gets UK distribution deal

12 November, 2019

Westward Whiskey will make its European debut in the UK via an exclusive partnership with distributor Spirit Cartel as part of its ongoing global market expansion.

The company's flagship whiskey, Westward American Single Malt, will arrive first, followed by Westward American Single Malt Oregon Stout Cask and single barrel expressions in 2020.

Westward Whiskey is based in the northwest of the US and its American Single Malt is bottled at 45% abv, and will carry a suggested retail price of £69.99.

“The demand for and interest in American whiskey in the UK, and the country's appreciation for the highest quality malt whiskey represent a major opportunity for Westward American Single Malt Whiskey,” said Westward CEO and co-owner Thomas Mooney.

“Westward is inspired by our home in the American northwest, and the unique culture, climate, and natural ingredients that make Oregon the ideal place to raise a world class malt whiskey.”
