The guys discuss the sale of Old Elk and Dan's visit to High West in Utah

On this episode of Chill Filtered, Cole and Bryan sip the newly released 2025 edition of Bourye from High West Distillery — a unique blend of bourbon and rye with a cult following. But before the pour, they cover some essential ground: Cole's hilariously bad haircut, the magic of Marg-Moritas (Margaritas made by friend-of-the-pod Bryce Morita), and the fascinating history behind High West's rise in the whiskey world.   On Whiskey World News, Cole humbly walks back last week's hot take on the new E.H. Taylor addition to the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection — but don't worry, he's still got opinions. And on “What Whiskey Would You Choose?”, Bryan asks: Do you ever drink your whiskey with ice? Whether you're a neat purist or a cube-curious sipper, there's something for everyone in this fun-filled episode.

The crew sits down and talks with the High West Director of Sensory and Product Development Tara Lindley. Tara shares her journey from Biochemist, to Napa Valley to her newest role with High West. She does all this while walking us through their two newest releases, the Bourye and High Country the American Single Malt.

Now, she's the director of sensory analysis and new product development for High West's owner, Constellation Brands, and her latest project is the 2025 release of High West's Bourye, a blend of Bourbons and Rye whiskies.

The fellas discuss and review High West's BouRye, The Noble Share and Midwinter's Night Dram Act 12 Scene 1. This Mailbag episode, gave us the opportunity to discuss High West's 3 most recent releases. Not being a tequila guy, The Noble Share really hits all the spots. 

In this new Tasting Talk on Distilling the West, Dan and Dave explore High West American Prairie Finished in Oloroso Sherry Cask for 9 months (98.6 proof). They dive into the impact of the sherry cask finish, noting how it enhances the bourbon's rich caramel and vanilla base with layers of dried fruit, spice, and a touch of nuttiness. The hosts discuss the balance between the sweetness from the sherry influence and the underlying bourbon character, making for a nuanced and complex pour. As always, their insights and banter make for an engaging and informative tasting session.

We hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! For this week's short, we decided to taste and review a bottle that has been around since 2014! High West Rendezvous Rye is considered to be a flagship whiskey of the High West brand and it is a limited offering. Once made completely of MGP distillate, this whiskey is now a blend of High West's own pot still rye and some of the distillate from the factory in Indiana. You'll have to give us a listen to find out how this "newer" version of this whiskey tastes. Unfortunately, we didn't have older stocks to compare it to, but that didn't stop Kenny from introducing a blind. -------------------------- Socials IG: https://www.instagram.com/themashupky FB: https://www.facebook.com/themashupky TW: https://twitter.com/themashupky Partnership(s) Visit Bourbonoutfitter.com and enter code THEMASHUP for a special discount or visit bourbonoutfitter.com/THEMASHUP Visit https://woodworkcollective.shop and enter code MASHUP for a 15% discount on your order Medicinal Whiskey Charity Gala: visit https://www.medicinalwhiskeycharity.org/ Music: All the Fixings by Zachariah Hickman Thank you so much for listening!

When it comes to the lifestyle of a ski town, Utah is a real pioneer. When High West began distilling in Utah nearly 20 years ago, it was the first ski town distillery in America. Ritual Chocolate followed suit, moving to Utah in 2015. In this episode, Last Chair explores the magic of whiskey and chocolate, and the unique experiences these two Utah companies are offering visitors.Back in season one of Last Chair, we talked with High West founder David Perkins, who told the unique story of how Utah became its home. Today, High West is a must-visit stop in either its Park City or its Wanship locations, and is one of America's most innovative distilleries. The High West brand represents the spirit of the west.So imagine this. When Ritual co-founder Anna Seear came to town, she started envisioning what it would be like to soak cacao nibs in used High West barrels. The distillery was also intrigued. Anna gets used High West barrels and create distinctive Ritual Bourbon Barrel bars. Then she gives the barrels back, and High West uses the chocolatey wooden kegs to create a unique Barrel Select – whiskey up front with a hint of chocolate aroma and taste in the back.There's a lot to learn in this entertaining episode of Last Chair, including a user's guide to enjoying some of the world's most notable whiskey and chocolate.LAST CHAIR GUESTSHolly BoothBeverage Manager, High WestHolly Booth defines her role at High West as a creator and facilitator of memories that revolve around whiskey, cocktails, and adventure, celebrating the spirit of the American West.

We took the Ritual chocolate barrel and put in a unique blend of straight bourbon whiskeys between four and nine years old. The majority, though, is around seven years old. We really wanted to highlight the element that cacao complements in bourbon, which is a lot of the vanilla caramel and that deep sweetness. We finished it in this barrel for nine months and then dumped it and went directly to bottle – didn't proof down. I believe it's right around 102 or 103 proof – so a little spicy, but really delicious on the palate.”WHAT'S THE ORIGIN OF THE RITUAL NAME?Anna Seear: “It's a call back to the history of cacao and how it was used in the rituals and ceremonies by the Mayans and the Aztecs and how it was it was truly held in high regard and respected.

On the final episode of the week, Kip sits down with Edgewater Inn owner Niya Gingerich to talk about the state of the 71 year old restaurant & bar. Navigating the restaurant industry these days is tough, doing it while trying to recreate your dream bar (RIP Local 46) adds a new layer, doing it after the 2020 Pandemic makes it damn near impossible... but Niya isn't giving up, in fact she's turning out danker pizza, great cocktails, a kickass patio party- all with a big ol smile.We talk about the headaches, the joys, the trials & tribulations and everything in between. She's revamped the nostalgic bar and restaurant to keep with the times... Kids eat free, lunch specials that rival the friendliest in the metro, Happy Hours til 7 PM and the Local 46 patio vibes back to the new LOT 46 Bar sharing the kitchen wall.What she needs is a little help from the community. Tune in to the pod, hear her story & then go order a kickass pizza, fresh mozz and homemade bread... and a delicious High West whiskey drink or Schooner of Coors. A Great Episode with a Wonderful Restauranteur.

Cheers,Scott and JakeBourbon Lens   About Tara Lindley Tara, High West's Sensory QA & Product Development Manager, began her career in the beverage industry in the wine world, making the switch to spirits upon joining the High West team. She now oversees sensory evaluations, alongside Master Distiller Brendan Coyle and Blending and Distilling Manager Isaac Winter, and guides decisions for new and seasonal blends. Over time, Tara has harnessed her confidence and cemented herself as an innovator.   About Holly Booth Throughout her time at High West, Holly ascended to lead bartender and teamed up with Steve Walton, now High West's director of hospitality, to grow the unique and cutting edge High West bar program. Holly aims to craft distinctive and impactful cocktails that celebrate whiskey and the beauty of the American West. One of Holly's biggest challenges has been proving that whiskey itself isn't just a man's drink.   About High West Whiskey: Utah's first legal distillery since 1870, High West's passion is crafting delicious and distinctive whiskeys and helping people appreciate whiskey all in the context of our home, the American West. High West offers an outstanding collection of highly rated whiskeys in finer liquor stores, bars, and restaurants in all 50 U.S. states and internationally. High West was honored to receive Whisky Advocate's prestigious Distiller of the Year award in 2016. The ultimate authority on whisky said, “High West delivers innovative and delicious whiskeys, expands the definition of what it is to be a distiller, and pioneered a successful new paradigm for craft distilling.” High West's must-visit locations include our High West Distillery in Wanship, Utah, a 30,000 square foot world-class distillery and visitor center featuring educational tours and High West's unique country-western cuisine; and our High West Distillery & Saloon in historic Old Town Park City, the world's only ski-in gastro distillery that was voted “Best Park City Restaurant” by readers of City Weekly. It has received multiple accolades including earning Best Après Ski Bar in Utah by USA TODAY's 10Best being named a finalist in the 2020 Park City's Best Awards for Best Après Ski, a nomination for Best Bar by the James Beard Foundation, and a top-10 ranking on The Daily Meal's list of 150 Best Bars in America.

The guys are back with the perfect holiday Proof Positive with High West Midwinter Night's Dram Act 10 Scene 2. The guys also compare this pour with Scene 5. Hear what the guys think on this week's episode. Make sure to follow and review on all major social media and streaming platforms. Cheers!

Tasting Notes:  It's BACK BABY! The 2023 edition of Midwinter captures the early magic of the brand with that signature dark red fruit nose and palate that combines the piney sweet bite of a high percentage rye with the deeply rich and fruity influence of part barrel ageing. Soft red fruit on the nose with vanilla bean and subtle rye spice emerging. On the palate, a sweet cocoa shines through with the dark rye spice presenting as snickerdoodle. Grab your favorite pipe and sweater and settle in for the night with this one!

This week we welcome High West Distillery back to the show! Tara Lindley and Holly Booth join us and take us on a sensory and cocktail journey through everything High West! We talk about how the brand got started, what led both of them to whiskey and then we drink some whiskey! Tara takes me through the sensory process of identifying whats in the glass and Holly teaches me how to make a High West Old Fashioned, there is literally something for everyone in this episode and we can't thank Tara and Holly enough for being on this weeks episode of The Bourbon Showdown Podcast.

Tasting Notes:  The latest from High West is a Cask Strength blend of straight bourbon whiskies bottled at 117.4 proof. The nose is fresh oak, marmalade, apple cider, and rye bread. On the palate, a punch of cinnamon, followed by mellowing oak, then softer fruit. A whip of molasses and leather finish you off!

During a recent Summit co-hosted by Food Tank and Niman Ranch, speakers gathered to discuss the role that everyone can play to support independent family farmers, the changing meat sector, and the opportunities we can build through food. This week's episode of “Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg” features two discussions from the event. First, hear why a strong relationship between chefs and food producers is so important to building a sustainable food system. Then, dive into a policy discussion as experts unpack the recent decision to uphold Proposition 12 and protect animal welfare. Speakers include Gustavo Arellano, Columnist, Los Angeles Times; Helena Bottemiller Evich, Founder, FoodFix; Jamey Fader, Chef, Marczyk Fine Foods; Chris Green, Executive Director, Harvard University's Brooks McCormick Jr. Animal Law & Policy Program; Julia Jordan, SeniorSustainability Director, Compass Group North America; Jo Lerma-Lopez, Chef, Luna Mexican Kitchen; Pushkar Marathe, Chef, Ela Curry Kitchen and Stage; Chris Oliviero, General Manager, Niman Ranch; and Michael Showers, Chef, High West.

You can listen to “Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg” wherever you consume your podcasts.

What's up everyone?!? We have an interesting episode for you this week. As you may have seen, High West used to have the American Prairie Bourbon, but it appears to have been replaced by the High West Bourbon. Our question was, is it the same, or if it is different, is it similar? Well, we don't want to spoil too much of the surprise so you will have to listen to find out. Following our review we talk about a specific viral TikTok video that has come out about a woman on a plane. As always, thank you for listening and "Keep it neat Friends".Whiskey: High West BourbonPrice: $30-35Proof: 92Age: 2 Year (Blend of 2-13 Year Bourbons)High Corn MashbillTopic: Lady freaks out on a plane saying someone isn't a real person....
