Woodinville Whiskey's 2024 Harvest Release features Woodinville Bourbon Sauternes Cask Finish, priced at $69.99, and Woodinville Founder’s Find, retailing for $129.99. Woodinville Bourbon Sauternes Cask Finish is made from corn, rye and malted barley sourced from the Omlin Family farm in Quincy, Washington. The grains are mashed and distilled in Woodinville, then aged in barrel houses in Central Washington, where temperature cycles enhance flavor extraction, per the brand. The barrels are seasoned in open air for 18 months, toasted and heavily charred before the fully matured whiskey is transferred into freshly emptied Sauternes casks. This whiskey has a proof of 105, and the first 500 numbered bottles were made available exclusively at the Harvest Release event held on Oct. 19.

Vanilla, sweet caramel, baked bread, brioche, lovely sweetness, baked bread, pastries and almond.
Moderate mouthfeel, pleasant sweetness and a good bit of honey. Almond, fresh pastries, honey, toffee and brioche continues through here. Light pepper and oak.
Long finish, right up my alley. Weaves together decadent honey, almond and orgreat, brioche, sweet caramels and a drizzle of maple.
Overall quite pleasant. I stand in my belief that Woodinville knows their way around a great finishing cask.
