American Whiskey
Second Glance
"The elegance of American whiskey under the gaze of a winemaker: smoothness, complexity, and a distinctive Napa Valley touch."
The Craftsmanship of Savage & Cooke
American Whiskey Second Glance is a creation by the visionary Dave Phinney at his Mare Island distillery. Made with a predominant base of corn and pure spring water, this whiskey stands out for its unique finishing process in Cabernet Sauvignon red wine barrels from Napa Valley. This masterful touch adds an aromatic and structural dimension that distinguishes it, living up to its name: a spirit that deserves a second glance.
