“”It is with great pleasure that we introduce the High West Pedro Ximénez Sherry Barrel select to the Australian market. The Pedro Ximénez Sherry Barrel select is the only barrel select whiskey from High West that will be launched this year making it an extra special blend.
All High West barrel selects are a series of small-batch whiskeys finished in second-use barrels. These collections offer incredible balance, complexity, and depth of flavour.
Our Pedro Ximénez Sherry Barrel select is no exception. With flavours of cherry woodsmoke, dates and baking spices coupled with aromas of crisp apple and maple syrup this barrel select is a true representation of the craftsmanship that goes into each barrel.
A huge thank you to Isaac, Dean & Rose for getting us access to this incredible drop!”” – WHA
We are always fans of cask finished High West, from the Oloroso finished Rendezvous to the last Australian exclusive Campfire blend. This batch is no exception.
