High West A Midwinter Night’s Dram – Act 12 Scene 7 (750ml)

Product Description

High West A Midwinter Night’s Dram Act 12 Scene 7 750ml is a sought-after, limited-edition rye whiskey that captures the essence of winter in one of American whiskey’s most iconic annual releases. Curated by blackbook for its consistency, depth, and cult following, Scene 7 continues the Act 12 narrative with a rich, layered profile designed for cold nights and slow pours.

Built on High West’s straight rye whiskey and finished in French oak port barrels, Scene 7 delivers a harmonious balance between rye spice and dark, vinous sweetness. The port influence rounds the edges, introducing notes of dried fruit, cocoa, and baking spice while preserving the rye’s natural structure and warmth.

At blackbook, we highlight releases that define a season and reward patience. A Midwinter Night’s Dram does exactly that—dramatic, expressive, and unmistakably special.
