High West Double Rye!

Young and Old from the Rockies.

High West distillery is a manufacturer and blender of Spirits located in Park City, Utah, hidden deep within the Rocky Mountains. Founded in 2007 by David Perkins, this petite distiller makes its offerings in small batches and is the first legally licensed distillery in Utah since the end of Prohibition. Most of their Spirits are sourced and blended, although they do distill some themselves.

Double Rye! is an award-winning blend of two Straight Rye Whiskeys aged between two and nine years. They’re also hush-hush about the ratio, but we do know the older is 95% rye, 5% barley malt from MGP, and the younger is 80% Rye, 20% Malted Rye from High West Distillery. Why the exclamation point? Because this beauty’s aim is to be the spiciest Rye Whiskey on Earth. The marriage of two wildly different juices offers a bold and complex character that’s great in an Old Fashioned or shared neat with a wrangler.
