This limited-release whiskey from High West is a true delight for whiskey lovers. Each Cask Collection Whiskey is crafted by blending selected lots of straight whiskey and then finishing them in second-use barrels. For this expression, the straight bourbon whiskey is finished in Cabernet Sauvignon barrels, which imparts the whiskey with a unique flavor profile that is rich and complex. Whether enjoyed neat or in a cocktail, this whiskey is sure to please any palate.
