High Wire Distilling Co.
Located in historic downtown Charleston, High West Distilling Co. is dedicated to making premium, handcrafted spirits. They seek the finest ingredients available and develop their recipes using a creative, culinary approach. All of their products are batch distilled in a hand-hammered, copper still to create the finest Southern spirits available.
We have four of their whiskeys on our shelves, they are:
Rye Whiskey:
The Rye Whiskey is made with 75% of ancient Italian Abruzzi, an heirloom grain grown in the Carolinas for centuries and prized for its hardy backbone and complex nutty flavors. Heirloom white corn completes the blend and adds a touch of sweetness to compliment the boldness of the rye.
Proof: 90
Tasting Notes: Sweet caramel notes take the lead before expanding into flavors of cinnamon, walnut, a hint of smoke, and a long, lingering spice
