High West Whiskey High Country American Single Malt is distilled and blended in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. It is made with a mashbill of 85% base malt, 14% caramel 60 malt and 1% chocolate malt. Aged in both freshly charred and second-use oak barrels, it has an 88 proof and is priced at around $79.99. High West is Utah’s first legal distillery since 1870.
All in all, this is a very effortless sipper with a decent amount of character, but perhaps one where I might have enjoyed a bolder approach even more.
