Men’s Lifestyle publication Man of Many has announced the launch of a limited release single-barrel whiskey.
Created in partnership with Oregon-based distillery Westward Whiskey, the new collaboration is limited to 300 bottles nationwide, available exclusively through online distributor The Whisky List.
Man of Many Co-Founders Scott Purcell and Frank Arthur hand-selected The American single malt in unity with Westward master distiller Miles Munroe.
Scott Purcell, Man of Many Co-Founder, said the new Man of Many x Westward Whiskey Single Barrel Release represented the perfect synergy between two award-winning craft brands with a shared passion for pushing the boundaries.
“From the moment we sat down with Miles for a virtual tasting, we knew this was going to be something special. During lockdown last year, we chose a single select cast to pour 300 limited edition bottles for our readers. We wanted something approachable and this rich, malt-forward drop felt like the perfect embodiment of Man of Many and Westward.”

With 300 bottles available nationwide, the exclusive single malt is crafted from in-house malted barley and matured in newly charred American oak barrels.
Man of Many hosted an exclusive reader event with a guest appearance from Westward Whiskey Master Distiller Miles Munroe to celebrate the cross-country collaboration. Held at the French Quarter at Nola Smokehouse in Sydney on Wednesday, 27 April, the sit-down dinner granted attendees the opportunity to meet the maker behind the award-winning distillery.
“The release of this special single malt is a celebration of Man of Many and the many people that have helped us along the way, so while it is an exclusive run, we want to enjoy this with our readers. We write about products all day, so being able to put our name to one is a very special feeling and something we’re incredibly proud of,” Purcell said.
The Man of Many x Westward Single Malt Whiskey is available to purchase exclusively via The Whisky List for AUD$175.
