Breckenridge Distillery Bourbon Whiskey

The mountains of Colorado have been my favorite place for years, especially the areas around Estes Park

Breckenridge Bourbon Whiskey

and the ski areas towards Copper Mountain and Breckenridge. So of course, finding the Breckenridge Distillery Bourbon Whiskey was a a real treat for me. Trying new whiskies is always a fun experience, especially when they come from an area that means something to me. It seems to enhance the experience. So, I was pretty excited to get to try this one out.

Breckenridge Distillery Bourbon Whiskey

Distillery: Breckenridge Distilliery, Breckenridge, CO

Batch: Unnumbered

Type: Bourbon Blend

ABV: 43% / 86 proof

A blended whiskey with snowmelt water from the Rocky Mountains

Appearance: Breckenridge Distillery Bourbon Whiskey is copper in color. It has long fingers that creep down the side of the glass.

Nose: On the nose, Breckenridge Disillery Bourbon Whiskey has sweet notes of spice, vanilla, and caramel.

Taste: Breckenridge Distillery Bourbon Whiskey has semi-sweet flavors of a vanilla, caramel, and spice.

Finish: Breckenridge Distillery Bourbon Whiskey has a quick finish. The flavors fade away quickly.

Overall, Breckenridge Distillery Bourbon Whiskey is a pleasant whiskey to drink. The sweet flavors and quick finish make it a naturally easy sipper. This is a great whiskey to enjoy around a campfire or deer camp. Maybe I'm biased because of my love for the mountains, but this is a great bourbon whiskey that I expect to add to my always on hand list of bottles. 

That reminds me, maybe it's time to do an updated inventory post.

I knew I liked Mark Twain for more than just his writing. What is your favorite whiskey to have "too much of?"

Colorado holds a special place in my heart. I spent a year there and would love to head back. Any new distillery is always one I want to try, especially one found in ski country!

Trying a new one tonight. I have high hopes for this distillery. #whiskey #terriblepuns pic.twitter.com/Vyc7isVxHQ

This is a lucky man right here. It's always nice to be  showered with gifts, even more so when they are something you would get yourself!

My lovely wife came home from a night away with two gifts for me. She knows me so well! #whiskey pic.twitter.com/clEboTMmFp

 Great way to say goodbye to the old and welcome in the new. I'm going to have to try that Crown Peach sometime, to see if I can wrap my head around it. I spy Bulleit in there too, one of my favorite bourbons!

How were saying goodbye to 2019. #whiskey #itswhatwehadaroundhere pic.twitter.com/smP3NmvWYD

 With a name like Detroit Whiskey Factory, how could this place not be cool. I have a friend living outside of Detroit, maybe I'll have to make a trip up to see him!
