First West Toasted Oak Whiskey (750ml)

Product Description

First West Toasted Oak Whiskey 750ml is a richer, oak-forward expression curated by blackbook for drinkers who enjoy deeper barrel influence and layered warmth. Built on First West’s smooth whiskey foundation, this release undergoes additional contact with toasted oak, unlocking darker sweetness, enhanced texture, and a more pronounced wood-driven profile.

The toasted oak treatment brings out notes of caramelized sugar, vanilla, and gentle smoke, rounding the whiskey with a fuller mouthfeel and longer finish. It’s designed for sipping, yet still versatile enough for spirit-forward cocktails where oak character matters.

At blackbook, we highlight whiskeys that show clear intent in their finishing. First West Toasted Oak delivers a noticeable step up in depth and complexity—without losing approachability.
