{"product_id":"high-west-rendezvous-rye","title":"High West Rendezvous Rye","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh West Rendezvous Rye — a blend of two straight rye whiskeys from Utah's first legally operating distillery since Prohibition, combining a high-rye mashbill expression with older pot-still rye to produce the layered complexity that neither component achieves alone.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHigh West Distillery was founded in Park City, Utah in 2006 by David Perkins. Rendezvous Rye is the distillery's flagship expression, built on the same two-rye blending philosophy as Double Rye! but with a higher proportion of older, more complex rye driving the profile. Where Double Rye! skews bold and botanical, Rendezvous Rye is more fruit-forward and structured — orange peel, dried apricot, and caramelized sugar anchored by ginger, cinnamon, and toasted oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is a rye that rewards both neat sipping and elevated cocktail use — complex enough to appreciate on its own, structured enough to anchor a Rye Manhattan or a high-end Sazerac.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orange peel, dried apricots, mint, clove, pine, and caramelized sugar\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bold spice with ginger and cinnamon; underlying sweet notes of molasses, vanilla, macaroon, and toasted oak\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lively rye spice fading to lingering caramel, orange zest, and tobacco\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e High West Distillery, Park City, Utah\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blend of Straight Rye Whiskeys\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46% (92 Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFiltration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-chill filtered\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/rye\"\u003erye whiskey at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhat does Rendezvous Rye taste like?\u003c\/strong\u003e Orange peel, dried apricots, and caramelized sugar on the nose; bold ginger, cinnamon, molasses, vanilla, and toasted oak on the palate; lingering rye spice with caramel, orange zest, and tobacco on the finish.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHow does Rendezvous Rye differ from Double Rye?\u003c\/strong\u003e Rendezvous Rye skews more fruit-forward and oak-structured with a higher proportion of aged rye; Double Rye is spicier and more botanical with more prominent mint and gin-like notes.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eIs Rendezvous Rye good for cocktails?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — its orange and caramel profile makes it exceptional in a classic Rye Manhattan, and the 46% ABV holds up beautifully against sweet vermouth.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What does Rendezvous Rye taste like?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Orange peel, dried apricots, and caramelized sugar on the nose; ginger, cinnamon, molasses, vanilla, and toasted oak on the palate; lingering rye spice with caramel, orange zest, and tobacco on the finish.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How does Rendezvous Rye differ from Double Rye?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Rendezvous Rye is more fruit-forward and oak-structured; Double Rye is spicier and more botanical with prominent mint and gin-like notes.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is Rendezvous Rye good for cocktails?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes — its orange and caramel profile makes it exceptional in a classic Rye Manhattan, and the 46% ABV holds up beautifully against sweet vermouth.\"}}]}\u003c\/script\u003e","brand":"High West","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42900650983495,"sku":"854396005022","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0640\/2375\/files\/HW_COM_Thumbnail-Rendezvous750ml_500x500_360x_548f6ff8-d2e9-4d83-a4e1-8c92638c2e81.png?v=1782426083","url":"https:\/\/bourbonnest.com\/products\/high-west-rendezvous-rye","provider":"Bourbon Nest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
