Cutwater Spirits Devil’s Share Single Malt Whiskey is a California crafted expression that highlights the bold character of American single malt with a smooth, approachable finish. Distilled and bottled in San Diego, this small batch release pays tribute to the “devil’s share,” the portion of whiskey lost to evaporation during aging, concentrating flavor and richness in every bottle.
Aged for four years in oak barrels, this whiskey balances malt driven sweetness with warm spice and toasted oak, making it an excellent choice for both neat sipping and elevated whiskey cocktails. Its modern profile and West Coast origins make it a standout for drinkers looking to explore beyond traditional Scotch or bourbon styles.
