High West Campfire Whisk(e)y

High West Campfire is the world’s finest blend of straight rye whiskey, straight bourbon whiskey, and blended malt Scotch whiskey. The second batch of Campfire blended with 100% High West own-make rye. A very unusual, distinctive, yet delicious whiskey. 46% ABV, 750 ml #14 on Whiskey Advocate's Top 20 Whiskies of 2017! "An oddball that crosses the divide between American whiskey and scotch by literally mixing the two, Campfire combines straight Indiana rye, straight Indiana bourbon, and peated blended malt scotch, marrying them together in heavily toasted French and Hungarian oak wine barrels. The scotch adds hearty, meaty flavors to the dry, spicy, and rich bourbon and rye. This is a robust and beefy whiskey, with smoke reminiscent of Southern barbecue. Earlier releases of this ambitious whiskey didn’t quite hit the mark. Now, it’s right on target. —Adam Polonski" 46% ABV.
