Courage & Conviction Cuvée Single Cask The Prime Barrel Pick

Courage & Conviction Cuvée Single Cask is an American Single Malt whisky, aged a minimum of four years, made from 100% malted barley, and is matured in first-fill European red wine Cuvée casks. These casks undergo ‘STR’ treatment, meaning ‘Shave, Toast, Re-char’. This process releases beautiful sugars and aromas from the wine casks, along with additional caramel, toffee, and vanilla flavors.

As our blenders taste the progress of whisky aging in Cuvée casks, a few special discoveries are hand-selected and set aside. These extraordinary casks show a range of depth and complexity, maximizing the influence of the specialty Cuvée red wine cask and Virginia’s dynamic climate. This whisky showcases its natural color and is not chill-filtered.
