Distillery: St. George Spirits

St. George Single Malt Whiskey XXX 30th Anniversary Edition starts with two of the oldest barrels of whiskey at the distillery: SM-03 and BSG-73, which are aged for about fifteen and thirteen years, respectively. Winters, together with distiller Dave Smith, then blends the two older barrels with two younger barrels Lot 12 and OCC-03 that best showcase the characteristics of St. George whiskey. After getting the ideal blend, Winters, in a nod to St. George’s early days as an eau de vie distillery, double barrels the whiskey in used pear eau de vie casks. While some whiskies are finished in former wine barrels, the unconventional pear eau de vie cask finishing lends an uncommon hint of sweetness to the single malt. Each bottle of St. George Single Malt Whiskey XXX 30th Anniversary Edition is hand-numbered, before being placed in a suede-lined, handmade pinewood box with a black lacquer finish a case befitting this limited edition whiskey. Only 715 bottles of this limited edition single malt have ever been produced.
