    They were $53 per bottle and they came from somewhere in Colorado...

    Had the 21 at a tasting last week. Very good. Recently got a bottle of the 16yr but haven't had a chance to try it!

    if you like rye, you'll love the 16. About the only bad thing I can say about that bottle is that it is hard to find now (but totally worth it).

    I've seen the 21 in a couple of different places for about $130. Does that sound about right?

    I've not pulled the trigger on one yet, but I am considering it. If I hadn't bought two bottles of PHC this week already, I probably would have taken the plunge.

    I've located 3 bottles of the 21 near me, for $130 each, IIRC.

    I am sure everyone is aware of this, but I will post it again as a PSA. The High West 21 is no longer being bottled. While I am sure this stay on shelves for a bit because the price can be prohibitive, I recommend buying it if you have been on the fence. It won't be getting any cheaper, and I have seen a couple places jack up the price as their stock dwindles. I bunkered a couple because it is not only very tasty, but very unique - I don't know if we will ever again see a rye aged in used cooperage for 21 years.

    Used cooperage for the entire 21 years LB, that doesn't sound like something a US distiller would've done.
