Process & Profile
High West’s Old Fashioned Barrel Finished Cocktail begins with a blend of Straight Bourbon (75% corn, 21% rye, 4% barley) and Straight Rye (95% rye, 5% barley) from MGP distillery. The spirit is combined with demerara sugar and aromatic bitters, then aged for ~3 months in used rye whiskey barrels. This maturation unites the flavors, creating a rich, smooth, and well-rounded premium pre-batched Old Fashioned.
