High West Distillery’s A Midwinter Night’s Dram Rye – Act 10, Scene 4 is a rare and theatrical winter release that showcases the distillery’s mastery of blending and finishing American rye whiskey. Built on High West’s award-winning Rendezvous Rye™, this limited-edition bottling is finished in French oak and Port barrels, where it develops a sumptuous, dessert-like complexity perfectly suited for cold nights and fireside sipping.
Each annual “Act” and individual “Scene” offers its own subtle nuances, and Act 10, Scene 4 continues the tradition with a beautifully layered profile. Expect an aromatic opening of dark plum, fig syrup, cinnamon stick, and toasted pastry, followed by a palate where spiced cherry compote, candied orange peel, and warm vanilla blend seamlessly with the rye’s natural herbal spice. The Port influence enriches the whiskey with velvety tannins and a lingering finish of cocoa, molasses, and winter fruits.
Elegant, dramatic, and unmistakably seasonal, this limited bottling captures the magic of a snowy evening—“a midwinter night’s dram” in its truest sense.
