If you didn’t know it, many distillers finish their whiskeys in secondary casks to add new aromas and flavors. This includes sherry butts, port barrels, and more. But some distillers are finishing their whiskeys in more exciting and innovative barrels.

“The best cask finishes explore and amplify the intricate flavors already inherent in the underlying whiskey. They enhance what is already there, adding surprising and delightful layers of complexity,” Lost Lantern Co-founder Nora Ganley-Roper said in a press release.

The Lost Lantern Spring 2025 Collection consists solely of finished whiskeys. Each whiskey is bottled at its natural cask strength, non-chill-filtered, and has no added color.

The whiskeys included are Opulent Orchard New York Distilling Co. Apple Brandy Finished Straight Rye Whiskey, Santa Fe Spirits Apple Brandy Finished New Mexico Single Malt Single Cask, Andalusia Tequila Finished Peated Texas Single Malt Single Cask, Starlight Honey Finished Indiana Straight Bourbon Single Cask, Watershed Nocino Finished Ohio Straight Bourbon 8 Years Old Single Cask, and Finger Lakes Distilling Pommeau Finished New York Straight Rye Whiskey Single Cask.
