High West Mountain Gin
46% ABV (92 proof) | 750mL | Small-batch vapor-infused gin | Park City, Utah — High West Mountain Gin is a small-batch vapor-infusion gin from High West Distillery in Park City, Utah — the first legal distillery in Utah since 1870, founded in 2006 by David Perkins. Built on Utah juniper with local sage, coriander, citrus peels and mountain herbs, it is bottled at 92 proof. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
High West made its name on whiskey, but its gin program drew on the same mountain botanicals that surround the Park City distillery. Vapor infusion — steaming the spirit through the botanicals rather than boiling them in it — gives a brighter, cleaner gin: juniper and sage up front, citrus lift behind. A distinctive American gin from one of craft distilling's landmark names.
