High West A Midwinter Night's Dram The Encore
Rye
High West // (bottled in) Utah, USA
RARE
High West A Midwinter Night's Dram The Encore is a limited-edition bottling available exclusively at High West Distillery in Utah. Like the most recent bottlings of A Midwinter Night's Dram, this begins as a blend of straight rye whiskeys — one is from MGP featuring a 95% rye, 5% malted barley mash bill and the other is from High West with an 80% rye, 20% malted rye mash bill. But rather than finishing the whiskey in ruby & tawny port barrels, white port barrels are used.
Bottled at 50.8% ABV, it's available as of October 2022. (SRP $150).

RyeUnlike bourbon, rye whiskey can be made anywhere in the world. But if made in the US, the mash bill recipe must be at least 51% rye and it must be aged in new, charred oak barrels with no age requirement. Elsewhere, the rye whiskey will be made keeping the country of origin's rules regarding the recipe and minimum aging.
