About this bottle

Catoctin Creek Distillery in Purcellville, Virginia, partnered with nearby Heritage Brewing in Manassas to produce their inaugural malt whisky. Catoctin distilled Heritage's Kings Mountain Scotch Ale, which had been aged in used barrels from the distillery. This limited-edition, single-barrel whiskey, with 344 bottles produced, was aged for at least one year in a new, charred oak cask. The review is from bottle 282.

Why there's no score

We have 2 ratings for this bottle, and we don't publish an average until 30 people have weighed in.

A handful of ratings can average to anything, and a 4.8 built on three of them looks exactly like a 4.8 built on three hundred. Rather than print a number we can't stand behind, we leave it blank until the count is there. The critic score above comes from a panel rather than the crowd, so it stands on its own.
