High West Bourbon Cask Strength 117.4 PF

High West Cask Strength Bourbon (117.4 Proof)
High West’s Cask Strength Bourbon is a barrel-strength blend of straight bourbons matured in Utah’s high-altitude ricks and bottled undiluted at 117.4 proof (58.7% ABV). Non-chill-filtered to preserve its full-bodied mouthfeel, it opens on the nose with orange peel, grilled peach cobbler, and white-chocolate-covered apricot, followed by sarsaparilla and a hint of maple. The palate delivers Concord grape, cooked plantain drizzled with agave nectar, tarte Tatin, and fine leather, leading into a long finish of boysenberry jam on shortbread, dark honey, and sandalwood.

Whether sipped neat to experience its uncut intensity or enjoyed with a few drops of water to unlock hidden nuances, this small-batch expression is a bold showcase of High West’s craftsmanship and Utah terroir.
