this is a very unique whiskey. The nose has light oak, fluffy waffles and fruit. The palate is where it gets really interesting. the mouth texture is so creamy and butterscotch! sooo much butterscotch and vanilla. finishes nicely with long soft finish as the oak becomes a little more prominent. The Canadian oak barrels really transform the base whiskey in a great way.20.0 USD per Pour

High West A Midwinter Night's Dram Act 9 (All Scenes)
Rye — (bottled in) Utah, USA
Reviewed December 25, 2022I did a blind tasting between this act and my bottle of act 7. Act 7 was more subtle and subdued when it came to the port finish, it came in strongest during the tale end of the finish. Act 9, the nose had a more pronounced wine scent, ethanol and blackberries. The palate starts with a nice sweet mouthfeel and vanilla. The finish because relatively quickly with a lot of cinnamon spice and oak. Between 7 and 9, I prefer 9 mostly because it had more depth to it with more flavors and different mouthfeel than act 7. Both very nice in their own ways. -
A whiff of light, caramel and meaty aromas. Caramel continues with vanilla, cherries Tobacco smoke that you get with well aged bourbons. The finish is fantastic. Slight dry (in a good way) oak and extremely long. You still taste this bourbon minutes after you had a sip. It drinks exactly like a 65 abv whiskey. Bold, rich and a little hot. Not for the faint of heart.

Vanilla bean and burnt oak char on the nose. The palate is bursting with flavors of apple pie, caramel candies and spices. The finish is just as big and long. This is definitely 63% abv and the oak is more forward than other Elijah Craig barrel proof batches I’ve had in the past. This one stands out nicely.
