Wine barrels and Western whiskey collide here. High West The Prisoners Share blends straight bourbon and straight rye whiskeys aged roughly four to twelve years, then finishes them in The Prisoner Red Blend wine barrels from Napa. The result feels lush and layered, with that deep 102-proof backbone carrying waves of dark fruit, oak spice, and pastry-shop richness in every sip. Aromas rise quickly from the glass. You get raspberry preserves, cherry cola, and creme brulee, threaded with toasted mahogany, pomegranate, and a little violet and cedar smoke that keeps things from turning overly sweet. Theres a subtle red-wine tannic grip underneath, hinting at pecan brittle, orange peel, and berry compote as it opens and breathes in the glass. On the tongue, it feels plush and confident. Think honey-roasted figs and apricot jam on toasted brioche, moving into cacao nibs, brown-butter caramel, bergamot tea, and a pop of black pepper and clove. The wine finish doesnt drown the whiskey; it wraps the bourbon-and-rye core in ripe plum, cranberry, and blackcurrant notes that feel decadent but still balanced. The finish hangs on longer than you expect. Youll notice cold-brew coffee, berry creme brulee, roasted pecans, and lingering French oak spice, with gentle rye warmth humming along in the background. It drinks like a modern wine-cask showpiecebold, fruit-forward, and polishedwhile still feeling unmistakably like High West pushing its blending chops hard.
