Thanks to /u/devoz for the sample of the 16 year.

I’ve recently been asked to stop reviewing bourbon. As such, I sat down and reviewed three of them, with breaks in between. All of them turned out to be ryes, all with different mashbills.

It was fun. You should try it some time.

Today I’m combining two of the reviews into one, as these two oddities are made by those crazy trendsetters at High West Distillery.

Located in Utah, one would suspect that High West was known for it’s sarsaparilla more than whiskey. And I’d love for that to be a rumour, if only so I could buy more and more and more of their offerings.

Alas, it’s not the case.

Rocky Mountain Rye Very Rare 16 and Rocky Mountain Very Rare 21 seem like a slow transition that we’ve seen before. We assume that they had a whole bunch…
