High West Campfire

High West Campfire is the world’s finest blend of scotch, bourbon and rye whiskeys. A very unusual, distinctive, yet delicious whiskey. Best enjoyed with old friends and good-looking strangers.

High West Distillery was founded in 2006 by David Perkins and his wife, Jane. David, a former biochemist, was inspired to open his own distillery after seeing parallels between the fermentation and distilling processes and his own work in biochemistry during a trip to Maker’s Mark Distillery in Loretto, Kentucky.

In 2004, David and his family relocated to Park City, Utah, to begin their new venture, which they launched in 2007. They chose Park City because of David’s love of the Old West and Utah’s little-known whiskey history.
