#### Background

**High West A Midwinter Nights Dram** is a limited release that combines the artistry of six-year-old rye whiskey (crafted from 95% rye and 5% malted barley) with the depth of sixteen-year-old rye whiskey (made from a mash of 80% rye, 10% corn, and 10% barley malt). After these exceptional rye whiskies are married together, they undergo a finishing process in French oak barrels and barrels previously used to mature port. This meticulous aging process adds layers of complexity, resulting in a whiskey that is both bold and beautifully balanced.
