Whiskey: High West Yippee Ki-Yay
This special blend of rye whiskeys, which was awarded 93 points from Tasting Panel Magazine, was aged in oak barrels that previously contained vermouth and syrah.
Size: 750mL
Proof: 92 (46% ABV)
Origin: United States
Distillery: High West Distillery
One day, just for fun, we put some rye whiskey into barrels originally used to age wine. When we mixed the ‘vermouth-ed’ and the ‘syrah-ed’ we discovered an all-natural, not disgustingly sweet whiskey for the rest of us.
