Hirsch The Departure Bourbon Whiskey (750 ml)

Description

Pre-sale, expected to ship mid-February 

HIRSCH The Departure is a unique American Single Malt Whiskey distilled at the Hotaling & Co. Distillery in San Francisco. This new release marks one of the final spirits crafted at the original Potrero Hill location. Aptly named “The Departure,” it represents a bold new direction for the distillery, known primarily for its rye whiskeys. Crafted from 100% malted barley, this expression stands apart from previous offerings, showcasing a different side of Hotaling & Co.'s expertise.

As the latest addition to HIRSCH’s award-winning portfolio, The Departure continues the brand's commitment to creating distinctive, high-quality spirits. This whiskey is double distilled in small copper pot stills, aged for 6 years 9 months in both new char #3 and toasted American oak barrels. The result is a crafted whiskey that will captivate whiskey enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Tasting Notes:
