There’s something about sipping good whiskey outside that just hits differently.

Maybe it’s the silence of the trees. Maybe it’s the smell of pine blending with vanilla and oak. Or maybe it’s just the contrast; the refinement of a slow sip against the backdrop of rough trails, dirty boots, and wind in your face.

That’s exactly the feeling Wyoming Whiskey’s National Parks No. 4 captures.

This limited-edition Straight Bourbon Whiskey is the fourth release in their National Parks series, each inspired by iconic American landscapes and made in partnership with Yellowstone Forever.

The No. 4 bottle honors Mammoth Hot Springs, and like the ancient thermal terraces it’s named after, this bourbon reveals its layers slowly, with warmth, depth, and a lasting finish.

Tasting notes: Deep flavor, easy appreciation

I’ve only recently started exploring the world of aged whiskey, but National Parks No. 4 made it feel easy to understand why people get so into this.

So, I guess I have Wyoming Whiskey to thank for getting me started on this journey into the complex world of Whiskey.

From the first sip, it’s complex but not overwhelming, just incredibly well-balanced.

  • Nose: Crème brûlée with a swirl of cherry compote and toasted coconut
  • Taste: Rich crème caramel, soft vanilla, and a kick of candied ginger
  • Finish: A light honeysuckle note that transitions into dark chocolate and espresso

It’s the kind of bourbon that’s smooth enough to sip neat, but holds enough intrigue to keep you coming back for another glass with fresh curiosity.

At 98 proof (49% ABV), it delivers presence without burn, whether you’re winding down after a day on the trail or just enjoying a slow evening back at camp.

The right way to take it with you

If you’re someone who likes to take their whiskey (or other spirits) on adventures, without compromising on taste, this is where the High Camp Torch™ Flask (9oz) comes into play.

Read our High Camp Flasks review to learn more about why this smart flask is the new way to carry spirits on adventures.

Here are some of the highlights:

This stainless steel flask is insulated, thoughtfully designed, and includes a magnetically attached shot glass for clean, civilized sipping.

The screw-off bottom makes it easy to fill with National Parks No. 4 (no funnel required), and the build quality means there’s zero metallic aftertaste.

It’s everything you’d want in a trail flask when stashing it in a daypack or sharing a post-hike pour with friends under the stars, pure heaven. High Camp flasks make for great gifts too!

A whiskey with roots and purpose

What makes Wyoming Whiskey’s National Parks series special isn’t just the collectible labels or the small-batch quality, it’s the story.

This fourth release is inspired by F. Jay Haynes, the official photographer of Yellowstone from 1881 onward. His images helped shape how the world saw the American West, and in a similar way, this bourbon feels like a tribute to moments that deserve to be remembered.

Each bottle helps support conservation through Yellowstone Forever, so there’s a tangible give-back built into every pour. It’s a whiskey with a mission, and I think it tastes even better because of it.
