Courage & Conviction PX Sherry Single Cask is a premium, cask-strength expression produced by the Virginia Distillery Company in Lovingston, Virginia. Unlike their standard 92-proof Sherry Cask release (which blends Pedro Ximénez, Fino, and Oloroso barrels), the single cask expressions are pulled from individual barrels and bottled unaltered.
Core Specifications
- Distillery: Virginia Distillery Company (Lovingston, VA)
- Classification: American Single Malt Whiskey
- Mash Bill: 100% malted barley
- Age: Minimum of 4 years
- Cask Type: Matured exclusively in Pedro Ximénez (PX) Sherry casks from Jerez, Spain
- Proof: Cask Strength (varies by individual barrel, typically 110–120+ proof)
- Production Style: Non-chill filtered, natural color.
Because these are single-barrel releases, exact flavor nuances vary by bottle. However, the PX Sherry maturation imparts a heavy, decadent sweetness compared to dry sherries:
- Nose: Rich golden raisins, figs, butterscotch, and sweet shortbread.
- Palate: Honeyed baklava, dark chocolate, leather, and warm cinnamon.
- Finish: Long and warming with notes of walnut brittle and honeycomb
Distinguishing from the Standard Release
Make sure to check the label carefully when buying:
- The Standard "Sherry Cask" is a 92-proof blend of three sherry styles (PX, Fino, Oloroso) and retails for about $70.
- The "PX Sherry Single Cask" states "Single Cask" on the front label, features a specific cask number, and is bottled at a much higher, uncut proof for around $100
