Producer Notes 

Since the 1990’s, the Michter’s team has been doing pioneering work to re-establish the high quality American Rye whiskey category. The May 2015 inaugural release of Michter’s US1 Barrel Strength Rye marked yet another milestone in that quest. For maturation, the Rye distillate is entered into the barrel at 103 proof, rather than a more industry standard higher proof. Barrel entry at a lower proof of 103 rather than a higher proof costs Michter’s more money in terms of barrels and warehousing, but we believe it yields a richer, smoother, more full-bodied whiskey after proper maturation. A single barrel product, each barrel of Michter’s US1 Barrel Strength Rye is bottled at its particular alcohol level at the time of bottling. The majority of barrels in the releases range from 107 to 112 proof. To savor it is a unique experience for anyone who enjoys rye whiskey. Michter’s US1 Barrel Strength Rye is also available with personalized Fort Nelson Reserve labeling at Michter’s Fort Nelson Distillery.

Producer Notes

Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. is widely considered one of the founding fathers of the bourbon industry, fighting for the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, nearly three decades after he purchased what is now called Buffalo Trace Distillery. During his time, Taylor implemented several innovative methods still used today, including climate controlled aging warehouses. Many of the barrels selected for the E.H. Taylor, Jr. Single Barrel are aged in Warehouse C, which was built by Taylor in 1881 and proven to be an excellent aging warehouse. Each barrel is hand-picked and Bottled in Bond at 100 proof to honor its namesake.

Back Label Story

Welcome, single malt lovers! You are holding High Country™ American Single Malt made in our copper pot stills high in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. As admirers (and imbibers) of the famed single malt whiskies of Scotland, we wanted to create a uniquely crafted version of an American single malt. To provide the robust, flavor-forward profile more typical of American whiskeys and of our High West style, High Country™ American Single Malt is distilled “on-the-grain.” This means that we leave the grain in during fermentation and distillation, instead of filtering it out. In the tradition of American and Scottish whiskey making, we use both freshly charred and second-use oak barrels during the maturation stage. These techniques produce a whiskey that shows its distinctive and delicious American qualities with a heavier mouthfeel, roasted malt character, and balanced complexity. High Country™ American Single Malt is best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water while appreciating a magnificent western vista.

Winemaking Notes

Caymus Vineyards was founded in 1972 by Charles F. (Charlie) Wagner, Lorna Belle Glos Wagner and their son Charles J. (Chuck) Wagner on the family's Rutherford property. The Wagner's produced their first Cabernet Sauvignon from the 1972 vintage. Caymus has made Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon every year since its founding, and now focuses entirely on this variety. The Wagner's took the name Caymus from the Mexican land grant known as Rancho Caymus, given to George Young in 1836, which included what became the town of Rutherford and much of the surrounding area  

A rich, showy style, with a very creamy texture to its mix of warmed vanilla, plum and boysenberry puree, and melted black licorice flavors. A mocha notes swirls around the fruit on the finish. Drink now through 2028. 141,348 cases made.

By adding a brand new charred American white oak stave to each bottle and then sealing it, we keep the angel's share inside the bottle capturing all of the finer flavor components. We make the Angels thirsty™!

Best paired with good company. Serve on the rocks, neat, in a cocktail, or however you drink your bourbon- Big Stick Bourbon starts smooth on the palate with flavorful notes of cinnamon and clove. It has a very robust and rich aroma. A nice finish with hints of oak, caramel and vanilla from the in-bottle oak staves. What constantly impresses customers is how incredibly smooth it tastes - we get rave reviews. One of our Winemaker friends said this: 

Tasting notes from a winemaker perspective: A Winemaker's dream dessert without the date ;) . Smell: Dried orange with Meyer lemon zest, wet clay and forrest floor, vanilla bean, toasted meringue.

Taste: Honeycomb warm wooden notes with amber waves. Sweet orange blossom, membrillo (quince) and blanched almonds. The perfect balance of wood and honey.

​

Being the first and only whiskey that adds a BIG STICK to  continually improve flavor in the bottle, we suggest you re-visit your bottle periodically as color, nose, and taste will change over time, for the better! If it lasts that long!

BOTTLE DESIGN AND SYMBOLISM

​

The Bottle itself symbolizes our respect for the military - it is tall and straight  - at attention. It is NOT square - it has a slight hourglass shape symbolizing the cut of a military uniform with a trim belt line represented by the white background of the label.

​

The figure of Odin represents the warrior spirit present in all our armed forces and their oath to protect and defend our country. The colors of red, blue and gold also symbolize military colors with the gold braiding representing the uniform stripe embellishments. 

The reverse label tells our story while the barcode artwork reminds us of the Military warrior heritage which helped start our country.

​

Our motto - GO BIG OR GO HOME.

Winemaker Notes

Grapes for this wine were sourced from Napa Valley’s Oak Knoll district, which includes two family vineyards. The area’s cooler weather, along with crop thinning and gravelly light soil, creates ideal conditions for producing a rich, distinctive Merlot. This wine is lush and supple on the palate, with expansive, dark berry flavors, a fresh earthiness and smooth, leathery tannins.
