High West Cask Collection Whiskey Finished in Oloroso Sherry Barrels

The High West Cask Collection Finished in Oloroso Sherry Barrels is a beautifully crafted limited-edition expression from High West Distillery in Park City, Utah — America's first licensed distillery and ski resort. This release takes High West's signature American whiskey and finishes it in Oloroso Sherry barrels from Spain, adding a rich layer of dried fruit, nutty sweetness, and elegant complexity that transforms the whiskey into something truly special.

Oloroso Sherry is one of the most prized cask finishes in the spirits world, known for imparting deep notes of dark fruit, walnut, and rich sweetness. In the hands of High West's blending team, the result is a whiskey that bridges the bold character of American rye and bourbon with the refined elegance of Spanish sherry tradition.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Dried fruit, toasted oak, walnut, caramel, and warm baking spice with a distinctive sherry sweetness

Palate: Rich and layered with dark cherry, raisin, vanilla, cinnamon, and a nutty Oloroso depth that complements the American whiskey base beautifully

Finish: Long, warming, and elegant with lingering dried fruit, spice, and polished oak

Pairing Suggestions:

High West Cask Collection Oloroso Sherry pairs magnificently with dark chocolate, dried figs, and aged Manchego. Its rich fruit and nutty sherry character also complements pecan pie, charcuterie, and walnut cake. Best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to open up the sherry fruit notes.
