High West is an interesting one, their blends used to include a heavy portion of teenage MGP rye (I think up to 17 year old components) but slowly started incorporating more of their own distillate as it came of age, and I think now most of what they're putting out is distilled by them. I have a couple older bottles that are fun but not my favorite style of rye. I have tried their BouRye releases but don't think I've had their bourbon, did a quick search and American Prairie looks like it's 2+ years old, that could include some older stuff but I'd guess it's still a pretty young average age

13 years 7 months age at 133 proof. Should be right up my alley.

Nice grabs! People have been asking for it feverously around here, the store owners are telling them to buy more B523 so the distributor will give up the C's. I'd rather overpay and have one shipped in
