High West Bourye Blend of Straight American Whiskeys (750ml)

'Bourye' hit the market around 2010 as an annually shifting composition that often included old sourced material. Ten years later it almost disappeared becoming a 'distillery exclusive' bottling. That's now changed, and it's back, reportedly as a ten-year-old, still featuring the legendary 'Jackalope' on the label. The final blend is bottled at 46% Alc./Vol. Batches will vary, with reviews below for the 2024 and 2025 releases, respectively.

Other reviews... High West’s bourbon-rye blend that was part of the original core lineup... Vanilla, citrus, and new leather on the nose. The palate offers maple syrup, cinnamon-sprinkled doughnuts, hot chocolate, and aged oak, all balanced by muted spice. Long, smooth, and filled with chocolate and cinnamon spice on the finish, where the flavors really sing. Still a great dram, too bad there isn’t more of it. 92 points - whiskyadvocate.com

...The nose is engulfing, the palate has far more peaks than valleys, and only the finish — nestled firmly into “pretty good” territory — keeps this blend from entering superlative territory. It’s one of the top High West Bouryes I’ve tried, and flat out among the best bourbon+rye blends I’ve sipped in recent memory. - drinkhacker.com
