Hirsch The Departure β American Single Malt Whiskey
A Bold Evolution in American Single Malt
Marking a significant new chapter for the HIRSCH portfolio, The Departure is a tribute to heritage and innovation. As one of the final spirits crafted at Hotaling & Co.'s historic Potrero Hill distillery, this limited release carries forward a rich legacy while forging a fresh path in American whiskey.
Crafted from 100% malted barley, double distilled in traditional copper pot stills, and aged for 6 years and 9 months, The Departure showcases a masterful balance of malt sweetness, oak depth, and subtle spice. The use of both char #3 and toasted American oak barrels elevates its character, offering complexity and finesse.
