Having both Rum Cask Finish and Honey Whiskey recognized speaks to our unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and craftsmanship.”
Double Gold and Gold Medal Winners:
- Breckenridge Rum Cask Finish
Our award-winning Breckenridge Bourbon soaks up the charm of our own aged Colorado Rum casks, creating an unstoppable wave of flavor. Candied apple and cinnamon enfold, as dark chocolate and cacao follow. Lingering allspice captivates the senses, gratifying in just one sip, but mysterious enough to leave you wanting another (45% ABV, 90 proof, $59.99 MSRP). - Breckenridge Honey Whiskey
Infused with rare rainforest honey sourced from Nigeria’s Goldswarm hives, this whiskey delivers a rich, smooth, golden finish that’s both distinctive and deeply flavorful. The aroma opens with warm molasses and golden honey, layered with soft holiday spice, toasted oak, and a whisper of vanilla. On the palate, lush honey sweetness leads, balanced by mature oak and cozy spice, before finishing with a lingering warmth of smooth cinnamon
(36%ABV, 72 proof, $38.00 MSRP).
