Description
Freedom in Every Drop
High West Distillery’s Prisoner’s Share is one of the most coveted annual releases from Park City, Utah — a whiskey born from the barrels that couldn’t be released on time. Named for the portion of whiskey lost to evaporation during aging (the “angel’s share”), Prisoner’s Share flips the script: these are the barrels held back, the ones that needed more time. The 2026 release is a bold, complex expression bottled at 102 proof, showcasing High West’s mastery of blending and patience.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Inviting aromas of dark cherry, toasted oak, vanilla, and a hint of dried herbs and leather.
- Palate: Rich and warming with layers of caramel, baking spice, dark fruit, and charred barrel notes.
- Finish: Long and complex with lingering oak, a touch of smoke, and a satisfying warmth.
