A fateful tour of Makers Mark Distillery in 2009 inspired David Perkins and his wife Jane to start their own operation. David — a former biochemist — basically said, “Hey, I can do that!” and moved his family to Utah and set up shop. Success has come hard and fast, and they now produce and market a range of products including their four core Whiskies, three current limited releases, two bottled cocktails, and two specialty spirits.
“Bourye” is a combination of the words Bourbon and Rye. High West Bourye Whiskey is harder to define. They’ve been making this concoction since 2015 and each year the configuration is a bit different. But we can say that this year’s edition is a proprietary blend of three Bourbons and two Ryes — all sourced from MGP in Indiana — ranging in age from eleven to fourteen years. The exact ratio is considered a state secret, but the result is an extremely tasty spirit bottled at a perfect 46% ABV. We also know that judges LOVE the stuff — consistently rating this blended dram above 90 points.

Nose / Aroma / Smell
Honestly, the aroma is like warm pancakes with melted butter.

With five core spirits, the palate is complex with raw pecan, cracker jacks, plenty of rye spice, and a dash of clove.
Finish
The finish is medium-length with sweet baking spices.
