Comment
Starward makes their own ginger beer at the distillery, using this to season the casks that their single malt is then finished in for up to a year, following its initial maturation in red wine barrels that is a hallmark of Starward whiskies. The ginger beer casks add a unique fiery note to the whisky, making this release truly one of a kind.
