All of its flavour is created naturally during the fermentation of the whey and the careful cuts made during distillation, then allowed to blossom through sustainable ageing in upcycled, recoopered oak barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWheyward handcrafts its spirit sustainably from farm to cask to flask, sourcing from domestic dairies with a focus on upcycling excess whey. The woman-owned company makes Wheyskey grain-free, gluten-free, additive-free and lactose-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt offers balanced notes of oaky vanilla, toffee and warm spice, followed by a uniquely velvety, smooth finish, an intriguing gift for curious drinkers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it straight, or use it to elevate a classic cocktail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhey is the liquid left over when milk is made into cheese or yoghurt, and it contains natural milk sugars that can be fermented.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAgeing in oak gives a spirit its colour, along with vanilla and caramel notes drawn from the wood. Because Wheyskey is distilled from whey rather than grain, it offers a smooth, grain-free alternative to traditional aged spirits. Upcycling excess whey turns a dairy by-product that is often discarded into a sipping spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecoopered barrels are rebuilt from used staves, giving the wood a second life while still lending oak character to the spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts vanilla and toffee notes make it a natural swap for bourbon in an old fashioned.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOak:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oaky vanilla.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweetness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toffee.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm spice and a velvety, smooth finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wheyward Spirit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barrel-aged spirit distilled from whey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpression \/ Batch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Batch 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask \/ Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upcycled, recoopered oak barrels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDietary:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grain-free, gluten-free, additive-free, lactose-free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat, or use it in an old fashioned or Manhattan.
