High West, a Utah-based distillery, has announced the release of its annual expression named Campfire.
This year’s expression will be available on shelves nationwide for a limited time only, from August 4th. As one of the distillery’s most beloved and unique expressions, Campfire is a blend of straight rye whiskey, straight bourbon whiskey, and blended malt Scotch whisky. The liquid’s ages range from four to eight years and are bottled at 46% ABV; this year’s release is the first to be blended with 100 per cent High West own-make Rye.
As part of High West’s “Protect the West” initiative and in tandem with this release, High West is donating $50,000 to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation to continue supporting the brave protectors who defend us from fires each and every day.
“Wildfire season in the West is no longer just a season, it’s year-round. As the true whiskey of the West, High West has only become more committed to protecting our backyard,” said Daniel Schear, general manager of High West. “With the annual release of this year’s Campfire and as part of our Protect the West initiative, we’re once again donating $50,000 to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation, supporting the brave few who run toward these fires. The limited expression is rolling out on shelves now, so we hope you’ll join us in not lighting a campfire, but drinking one instead.”
High West Campfire is available at an RRP of $79.99.
