One of the things that sets High West 2023 Bourye apart from other whiskeys is the attention to detail that goes into its production. The distillers at High West carefully select each barrel to ensure that only the best spirits make it into the final blend. The whiskey is then aged for a minimum of 10 years, allowing the flavors to develop and mature.
The packaging of High West 2023 Bourye is also noteworthy. The bottle is adorned with a custom label that features an illustration of a cowboy on horseback, riding through the mountains. The label also includes information about the blend, the distillery, and the aging process.
