Utah’s High West Brings Out Bourye For 2024

High West, the Utah-based craft distiller and negociant who earned a strong reputation for transparent sourcing more than a decade ago, has released its 2024 edition of Bourye. The Bourye expression is noted as a hybrid, drawing on stocks of both bourbon and rye that are aged for 10 years or more.

In this instance, the rye side of the equation is composed to two stocks: the ubiquitous 95% rye, 5% barley malt whiskey from MGP; 80% rye, 20% malted rye from High West itself. The bourbon side comes from a traditional 75% corn, 21% rye, 4% barley malt bourbon made by MGP, and a 78% corn, 10% rye, 12% malted barley from an undisclosed distillery in Kentucky. The whiskey has been left unfiltered, and bottled at 92 proof. Technically, it is a 10 year old hybrid whiskey, but that is not stated on the label.

Bourye is sold only through the High West shop in Utah for $124.99
