High West Valley Tan
Other Whiskey
High West // Utah, USA
High West Valley Tan was originally made with a predominately oat mash bill, but was switched to a majority wheat mash bill by edition 3, also including oat and malted barley. The move was based on a historical reference from explorer Sir Richard Burton to Utah whiskey made from wheat. It's distilled by High West themselves, as opposed to their sourced expressions.
Non-chill-filtered, with no additives or flavorings, it's bottled at 43.5% ABV, and is a blend of whiskeys between three and six years old. Limited availability.

Tasting Notes
"Find oats, overripe baked apples and yeasty ale on the nose, with hints of cider vinegar. The palate showcases a distinct wheated flavor, but also oats - think Multigrain Cheerios, or maybe Honey Nut Cheerios. A rich sweetness creeps in on the finish, with molasses and brown sugar, along with honey, and oaky spice. This is funky and different, but definitely fun. Let it open up for a few minutes and it quickly grows on you."
