Courage & Conviction American Single Malt Whisky is a distinguished creation from the Virginia Distillery Company, rooted in the principles of its founder, Dr. George G. Moore. This whisky is a tribute to both his passion for single malt whisky and his love for his adopted home in Virginia. Established in 2011, the distillery has embraced the unique climate of the Blue Ridge Mountains, utilizing the region's temperature fluctuations to enhance the aging process of their spirits. The result is an exceptional American single malt that challenges traditional norms and redefines what American whisky can be.
This flagship whisky is crafted from 100% malted barley and is aged for a minimum of three years in a carefully selected combination of former Bourbon, Sherry, and Cuvée wine casks. This innovative aging process adds layers of depth and complexity to the spirit, allowing the natural characteristics of the casks to meld beautifully with the rich flavors of the malt. The dedication to quality is evident in every step, from sourcing the finest ingredients to employing traditional distillation methods using hand-hammered copper pot stills.
