The final cask in our summer series features Golden Promise, a spring barley varietal most often associated with Scotland. In the 1970’s and 80’s this malt was commonly used for Scottish ales and single malt whiskey. It fell out of favor as newer varietals with higher yield and greater disease resistance were developed. The Golden Promise spirit, like the other releases, was matured in a Heaven Hill ex-bourbon cask allowing a unique opportunity for comparison.
