Cat’s Eye Obtainium Bonded Light Whiskey
Whisky/Whiskey, American Whiskey, Bottled in bond, Brands, Cat's Eye Distillery, Alcohol, Light WhiskeyWhat does “Bottled in Bond” mean? The Bottled in Bond Act of 1897 was enacted to ensure the quality of the product and safety of the consumer. In the mid-1800s’ many less than reputable companies were selling concoctions of ingredients and calling it Whiskey. Few met the definition of a distilled spirit, much less whiskey. Thus the Bond Act of 1897 was born. Giving the consumer assurance that what they were buying was the real thing. Meeting strict guidelines was the only way for a spirit to be deemed a “Bonded” Whiskey… Enjoy with confidence!

High West 14 Years Old Barrel Select Light Whiskey
At High West, we believe education leads to appreciation so we’d like to shed some light on a rarely discussed type of whiskey… “light whiskey.” Not to be confused with lower calories or an Edison light bulb, “light” denotes a grain spirit distilled between 80-95% alcohol by volume (ABV) – it’s “lighter” than a straight whiskey (which is distilled to <80% ABV) but “heavier” than neutral grain spirits (what is called NGS and makes vodka) which must be distilled > 95%. However, most light whiskey is distilled to 94.5 ABV so it’s almost NGS! Distilling that high removes almost all the congeners, the chemicals other than ethanol that whiskey lovers call “flavor.” Light whiskey isn’t common in the U.S. because we prefer our “heavier” straight whiskeys.
However, light whiskey has an important role to play in the world of whiskey. It is the “dilutant” in about 95% of the world’s blended whiskeys. In the U.K., what they call grain whiskey is more or less the same thing as light whiskey. It gets blended with heavier malt whiskey to make scotch. In North America, light whiskey gets blended with heavier straight whiskey to make blended Canadian (about 95+% of all Canadian whiskey) as well as most American blended whiskeys that are not blended straight Whiskeys.
We were lucky to find 100 barrels of light whiskey produced from corn and aged in 2nd fill barrels. That time in wood had an amazing effect on the “light” spirit, imparting incredible vanilla and white chocolate notes. This is a rare and beautiful spirit that’s not likely to ever be made again for a long time.

Very Old Goat 20 Year Old Light Whiskey
Must’ve been around the time we decided to get serious around here we got a call from Uncle B. He let us know about a treasure trove of aged whiskey that had become available out of Indiana. Maybe they forgot about the stuff because everyone was so wild on Bourbon, light whiskey had just fallen to the wayside. So far to the side, it ended up a decade and a half old before anyone noticed! My Daddy and I had been looking for some unique aged inventory for our library and this stuff fit the bill, there was only one problem: it was a touch bitter four our preferences. Knowing we had magic wands to wave and spells cast, we brought it in and began finishing the whiskey to provide more body, nuance, and sweetness. We landed on a port finish and never came back. There are not many bottles of this whiskey, and there won’t be many more. It’s special, just like you. With love from Cambridge, Wisconsin.
