Description
High West The Prisoner’s Share Whiskey is a testament to the art of blending and finishing. This exceptional spirit combines straight bourbon and rye whiskeys, aged between four and fifteen years, creating a complex and layered base. The blend is then finished in French oak barrels that previously housed The Prisoner Red Blend, a renowned wine from Napa Valley.
The result is a whiskey that offers a symphony of flavors. On the nose, expect aromas of cherry blossom, pomegranate, macerated prunes, and dried violets, complemented by hints of ginger beer and toasted cedar. The palate unfolds with notes of honey-roasted figs, apricot jam on grilled brioche, black pepper, and coconut pound cake, leading to a finish of cold brew coffee, berry crème brûlée, and roasted pecans.
Bottled at 102 proof, this whiskey delivers a bold yet balanced experience, making it suitable for sipping neat or with a splash of water to open up its intricate flavors. Its limited release status adds to its allure, appealing to collectors and connoisseurs alike.
Whether you’re a fan of High West’s innovative expressions or seeking a unique addition to your whiskey repertoire, The Prisoner’s Share offers a memorable tasting journey that bridges the worlds of whiskey and wine.
