High West Double Rye! Whiskey Aged in Aquavit Barrels (Private Selection)

This Barrel selection spent 11 Months in Aquavit Barrels. 

Double Rye! is a blend of two different rye whiskeys. It is also crafted to be twice as spicy (think cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves) as your average rye whiskey. We recommend trying a Double Rye!® Manhattan or Old Fashioned – it’s also absolutely superb for sipping alone or sharing with other cowboys and good-looking strangers.

NOSE

Mint, clove, cinnamon, licorice root, pine nuts, and dark chocolate, with a surprising dose of gin botanicals throughout

TASTE

Rye spices up front, then menthol, mint, eucalyptus, herbal tea with wildflower honey and all spice

FINISH

Cinnamon and mint, gradually sweetening through the finish, with a hint of anise

WHAT IS “PRIVATE SELECTION”?

All products with “Private Selection” in the title are bottles exclusive to Top Shelf Wine and Spirits. Our whiskey-enthusiastic team hand-selects the specific barrel to be only sold here. Each barrel creates a unique taste, so the process of picking a single barrel is complex and distinctive each time. (Tip: if you enjoyed a bottle of our ‘private selection’, that means that you have similar tasting palate to us and would most likely enjoy all of our private selections!)
