This should be a top choice for fans of port-finished whisky as well as anyone looking for a good, rich bourbon. Ample sweetness and a decadent texture are balanced by robust grain. Savory notes on the finish compliment the sweet red fruit, creating a dynamic and complex profile that should satisfy most any bourbon drinker. Though it's not entirely necessary, adding water does give this a lot of lift and highlights its nuances. Wood spice and a hint of mint enter the fray, making this a good one to revisit many times over.

Notes

Missed the release of A Midwinter Night's Dram? Have no fear, your port finished High West opportunity knocks. High West offers a phenomenal selection of interesting finsihes to their single cask options. When we saw that there was a barrel with well over a year long finish in a tawny port barrel, we had to jump on it. It is the perfect complement to A Midwinter Night's Dram - offering bourbon, instead of rye, as the spirit. The long sleep in a tawny port barrel imparts an impressive array of dried fruits, chocolate, and treacle to the lighter caramel and vanilla character of the American Prairie bourbon. It takes a great bourbon and makes it even better. Add being bottled at cask strength, and this beauty sings with power. Only 270 bottles exist, so grab one while you can!
