High West High Country (Batch 25A16), 44.8%

Price: 80 Issue: Fall 2025 Reviewer: David Fleming Category: Single Malt American Whiskey

The latest batch of this label that debuted in 2019 is a blend of three different recipes. Aromas of pine, licorice, and Earl Grey tea on the nose. Sweet, malty, and with a syrupy mouthfeel on the palate that offers honey, golden raisins, vanilla, spice, chocolate, and a hint of coconut. More malt, spice, vanilla, and honey on a finish with good length. Pleasant malty sweetness—quite malty a times—with interesting flavors
