About this bottle
High West Yippee Ki-Yay is a blend of straight rye whiskeys finished for a period in vermouth and French oak wine barrels, giving it a wine-adjacent layer on top of the base rye. The rye backbone brings baking spice, black pepper, and vanilla, while the vermouth cask finish folds in a subtle herbal, slightly fruity sweetness that softens the whiskey's edges. Expect a deep amber color and a finish that runs long and smooth rather than sharp. It's built for drinkers who like their rye a little unconventional — something with a cocktail-bar pedigree rather than a straight-down-the-line rye profile.
How to drink High West Yippee Ki-Yay
Neat or on a single rock lets the vermouth finish show through. It also makes an interesting twist in a Manhattan, since the whiskey already carries some of the vermouth's character before the vermouth in the glass even gets added.
