High West Double Rye! Whiskey
American Straight Rye Whiskey | 92 Proof (46% ABV) | 750 mL
Process & Profile
High West Double Rye! is a meticulously crafted blend of two high-rye whiskeys, showcasing the spirit of innovation from Park City, Utah. One component is a bold Indiana-sourced rye with a 95% rye/5% barley-malt mash bill (at least 2 years old), while the other is High West’s own distillate—a smoother, 80% rye/20% malted-rye whiskey aged up to 7 years. The blend is bottled non‑chill filtered, delivering a spicy and herbaceous character at 92 proof.
Tasting Notes 


Nose: Mint, eucalyptus, clove, cinnamon, licorice root, pine and dark chocolate, with garden-herbal brightness and gin-like botanicals


Palate: Fresh rye spice up front, then menthol, honeyed wildflower sweetness, allspice, herbal tea, green tea, and a touch of citrus


Finish: Warming orange-cinnamon spice and black pepper, lingering mint and mild oak, with a gently sweet and herbal fade


What Makes It Special


Double-rye blend: combines two distinct high-rye whiskeys for complexity and contrast


The young, MGP rye brings vibrancy; the older HW distillate adds depth and smoothness


Bottled at 92 proof (46% ABV), fully non-chill-filtered for full flavor impact


Versatile—equally skilled for sipping neat, on the rocks, or elevating cocktails


How to Enjoy
Serve neat or with a few drops of water to enhance its herbal and spice notes. It stands strong in rye-forward cocktails like the Manhattan, Old Fashioned, or Sazerac, and works beautifully in a winter evening by the fire.
