High West Announces 2025 Release of Bourye
High West has announced the 2025 release of Bourye, a limited release blend of straight bourbon and rye whiskeys.
This year’s release of Bourye marries two straight rye whiskey mash bills with three straight bourbon whiskey mash bills:
- 95% rye, 5% barley malt from MGP
- 80% rye, 20% malted rye from High West Distillery
- 75% corn, 21% rye, 4% barley malt from MGP
- 60% corn, 36% rye, 4% malted barley from MGP
- 78% corn, 10% rye, 12% malted barley from an undisclosed Kentucky distillery
All components have been aged for a minimum of 10 years in new charred white American oak barrels before being blended and bottled without chill filtration at 46% ABV (92 proof).
The 2025 release of High West Bourye is described as having aromas of “Honeycrisp apples, caramelized peaches, homemade waffles with honey butter, bergamot, toasted almonds, sandalwood, and a wooden chest filled with dark chocolate truffles.” The palate has notes of “maple-glazed donuts, salted crème brûlèe, candied orange peel, chicory, English breakfast tea, ginger chews, and seasoned oak.” It finishes with “fresh yellow nectarines with a softly building rye spice.”
High West Bourye is available in limited quantities nationwide for a suggested retail price of $124.99.
