The Wolves Malted Barley Series is being launched by the California distillery to offer spirit enthusiasts with a single-malt expression that's a first for the brand. The spirits series includes Lot One, which is limited to just 12 barrels with 11 combined to achieve a small-batch single malt expression with a 55% ABV. The final barrel of the series has been bottled as a single-barrel single malt limited to just 228 bottles that come in with a 62.5% ABV.
The Wolves Malted Barley Series is slated to launch for presale starting on March 30, 2023, and will be priced at $350 for the single-barrel whiskey and $289 for a six-pack of the single-malt expression. Each of the bottles are paired with an embossed sheepskin label.
