{"title":"High West","description":"\u003cp\u003eHigh West Distillery is the brand that proved a few important things about modern American whiskey: that a Western distillery can be taken seriously, that sourced and blended whiskey can be artistic rather than apologetic, and that a thoughtful brand identity (the saloon-style labels, the cocktail-program ethos, the Park City home base) can build a fiercely loyal audience without leaning on bourbon's Kentucky-heritage iconography. Founded by David Perkins in 2006 at the foot of the Wasatch Range in Park City, Utah, High West blends and finishes its own whiskey, distills under its own roof, and treats its sourcing program as a craft rather than a workaround.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe High West range at Bourbon Central walks the full lineup: the workhorse blended ryes like \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-double-rye-whiskey\"\u003eHigh West Double Rye\u003c\/a\u003e ($39.99), the deeper rye blends like \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-rendezvous-rye-whiskey\"\u003eHigh West Rendezvous Rye\u003c\/a\u003e ($78.09), the bourbon-and-rye marriages like \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-whiskey-bourye\"\u003eHigh West Bourye\u003c\/a\u003e ($114.99), the smoked-malt-finished \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-bourbon-whiskey-campfire\"\u003eHigh West Campfire Bourbon\u003c\/a\u003e ($88.09), the limited-release winter unicorn \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-a-midwinter-nights-dram\"\u003eHigh West A Midwinter Night's Dram\u003c\/a\u003e ($159.99), and the cask-strength flagship \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-distillery\"\u003eHigh West Limited Release 2026 Cask Strength Bourbon\u003c\/a\u003e ($64.99).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe High West House Style\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you reach for High West, you're reaching for a more layered whiskey than most distilleries can build in a single mash bill. The signature blends — Double Rye, Rendezvous Rye, Bourye — work by marrying older and younger whiskey from different sources, blending to a profile rather than to a single grain bill. The result is whiskey with more grain complexity than a single-distillery rye and more textural depth than most single-distillery bourbons. Double Rye is the introduction, mixing a younger spicier 95% MGP rye with an older smoother 53% rye for a balance of pepper and softness; Rendezvous Rye doubles down with a 16-year-and-older component and turns the depth up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bourbon side runs through \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-bourbon-whiskey-campfire\"\u003eCampfire Bourbon\u003c\/a\u003e — a marriage of bourbon, rye, and peated Scotch that drinks like a single coherent whiskey rather than the gimmick it might look like on paper — and the new \u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-distillery\"\u003e2026 Limited Release Cask Strength Bourbon\u003c\/a\u003e, the most uncut expression of what High West can do with its own distillate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe High West Limited Releases\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/high-west-a-midwinter-nights-dram\"\u003eA Midwinter Night's Dram\u003c\/a\u003e is High West's annual Rendezvous Rye finished in French oak port and Sauternes barrels — a winter release that ages for several months in wine casks and arrives every November to immediate sellout demand.

The Double Rye in particular is one of the great rye-cocktail workhorses on the shelf: spicy enough to push through orange bitters and Carpano Antica in a Manhattan, smooth enough to drink straight after the cocktail is done.

Distilled exclusively from 100% Hudson Valley grains—55% corn, 35% rye, and 10% malted barley—this bourbon is truly local, capturing the essence of its land. The mash is fermented in *open-top wooden tanks*, then distilled twice in *direct-fired copper pot stills*, a time-honored technique that preserves bold grain flavors. What sets it further apart is its maturation: aged at an ultra-low proof of 105 in New York-coopered, charred barrels made from Hudson Valley oak—ensuring a genuine New York Straight Bourbon experience.\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\nExcelsior Bottled-in-Bond unveils a remarkably full and layered profile:\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fig, apricot, sweet ginger, cinnamon, vanilla, and caramel offer a warm, inviting bouquet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Begins with caramel and black pepper, giving way to vanilla, peaches, nutmeg, and a whisper of campfire wood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lingering notes of vanilla cream, almond, cedar, and a vibrant zest of spice—courtesy of its high rye content.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Makes It Special\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% New York Ingredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every element—grain, oak barrels, and craftmanship—is sourced from the Hudson Valley, making it the first truly all-New York bourbon since before Prohibition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeritage Methods:\u003c\/strong\u003e Using open-top fermentation and direct-fired alembic stills, Coppersea preserves maximum character and complexity in every batch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottled-in-Bond:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crafted under strict federal regulations, bottled at 48% ABV (96 proof), and aged a minimum of four years (for Bottled-in-Bond designation), guaranteeing quality and authenticity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSustainable Practices:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barrels are made from sustainably-harvested Hudson Valley oak, exemplifying Coppersea’s commitment to local and responsible production.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Enjoy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeat or On the Rocks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Savor its complexity undiluted or with a single cube to gradually open its bouquet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassic Cocktails:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excelsior’s rich spice and layered sweetness shine in Manhattans, Old Fashioneds, and Boulevardiers—where its bold flavors balance perfectly with bitters and vermouth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWith Food:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pairs beautifully with aged cheeses, charcuterie, or rich desserts like pecan pie and bread pudding, thanks to its harmonious mix of spice, fruit, and oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nDiscover \u003cstrong\u003eCoppersea Excelsior Bottled-in-Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/strong\u003e—a distinctively New York spirit, rooted in local tradition and passionate, time-honored craft. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb-6\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"mb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoppersea Excelsior Bottled-in-Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eis a premium bourbon crafted in New York’s Hudson Valley, distilled from local grains and matured in barrels made from New York-harvested American oak.
