High West Campfire masterfully unites straight rye whiskey, straight bourbon whiskey, and peated blended malt Scotch, creating an unexpectedly harmonious dance of sweet, spicy, and smoky notes perfect for contemplation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \n        \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Initial notes of sweet caramel and vanilla from the bourbon component, quickly followed by the spicy, herbaceous kick of rye – think dill, mint, and a hint of black pepper. Underneath, a distinct, nuanced smokiness emerges, reminiscent of a distant campfire or toasted oak, interwoven with a touch of dried fruit like apricot or fig from the Scotch influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e The palate opens with a surprising textural richness, almost creamy, despite the 80 proof. A wave of sweet butterscotch and baking spices (cinnamon, nutmeg) from the bourbon grounds the experience. The rye asserts itself next with a vibrant peppery spice and a pleasant dryness. The blended malt Scotch contributes a fascinating layer of earthy peat, a gentle savory char, and sometimes a whisper of maritime saltiness, adding depth and complexity without overpowering the American whiskeys. The smoky character is integrated, not dominant, offering warmth rather than an ashiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to long, with a delightful interplay of sweet and smoky. The sweetness of brown sugar and vanilla lingers alongside a persistent, though mellow, warmth from the rye spice. The distinctive peat smoke recedes slowly, leaving a pleasant, lingering campfire ember glow and a faint echo of dried fruit and toasted nuts. Remarkably clean for such a complex blend.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reserve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48231839105242,"sku":"BOURBON-1784139773841","price":227.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/8263\/7018\/files\/main_c6a63e2d-80f7-4409-ae44-df64b578b67b.png?v=1784295706","url":"https:\/\/takeyourpickliquors.com\/products\/2016-high-west-distillery-campfire-92-proof","provider":"Take Your Pick Liquors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
