FINISHED IN OLOROSO SHERRY CASKS
High Country is an American single malt distilled entirely in Utah by High West Distillery. It is unfiltered and finished in part in oloroso sherry barrels. Also, unlike the previous two releases in 2019 and 2020, there is no peated whiskey in the release.
Whiskey Advocate: 85 Points
Earthy, phenolic, and herbaceous with a wisp of smoke and seaweed, this is certainly characterful. The flavor marries malty sweetness, red fruits, and a peculiar smoke, like a distant burning leaf pile or smoldering smoked jalapeños. While it tastes a bit young, and it's certainly unconventional, this is a very intriguing whiskey, with an ashy finish delivering cocoa and nutty notes.
