What did one rye say to the other in a bottle of High West Double Rye!?
"This whiskey sure is big enough for the both of us!"
High West Double Rye! is made by blending two very distinct rye whiskies together, a lively 2-year-old and a sweeter 16-year-old that was made with a higher proportion of corn. It's the kind of idea that makes everyone in the saloon stop and stare, including the old fella playing piano in the corner.
The result is a mighty fine whiskey with a good kick from the younger rye and lasting refined flavour from the elder. Yee-haw! Get along, now!

I really wanted to like this rye. After reading the Breaking Bourbon review and other good reviews I was expecting an unusual taste profile that would split opinion. However it's just a bit dull, a bit bland, a bit meh. On the plus side if you are after a rye with no burn and light tasting it may be the dram for you. For me I'd take Pikesville, Few, Sazerac & Rittenhouse over this anytime.
Visited High West and I drank this more than the Rendez-vous Rye... it's bolder, more pungent and whilst younger, really nicely balanced.
I think this stuff would be better as a hand sanitizer. Not drinkable but stong and rank
Bought this on a whim and was well pleased. Nice overall flavor. I will have to look at their other whiskeys
