Lost Lantern American Vatted Malt Edition No. 1

A historic, award-winning collaboration that represents one of the first "Vatted Malts" (a blend of single malts) ever created in the United States! Lost Lantern brought together six of the country's most elite single malt producers—Balcones (TX), Copperworks (WA), Santa Fe Spirits (NM), Triple Eight (MA), Westward (OR), and Virginia Distillery Co. (VA)—for a single-day marathon blending session. The result is a 12-barrel masterpiece bottled at 105 proof (52.5% ABV). It is non-chill filtered and natural color, offering a complex "monster" of a malt that beautifully harmonizes the diverse climates and distilling styles of the entire American continent.

NOSE

Rich and malty with aromas of roasted grain, dry hay, light smoky oak, and a touch of baking chocolate.

PALATE

A perfect balance of sweet and savory. Punchy malt and vanilla are layered with white pepper, raisins, leather, and honeydew melon.

FINISH

Medium-long and warming with lingering notes of vanilla cream, smoky oak, and a slow-building dry heat.
