1. Breckenridge Bourbon Whiskey [86pf]

Breckenridge Distillery is most widely known for our blended bourbon whiskey, a high-rye mash American-style whiskey.  Breckenridge Bourbon is one of the most highly awarded craft bourbons in the market and for good reason. Our award-winning, high-rye Bourbon Whiskey is aged for a minimum of three years, in charred, new American oak barrels, and blended to reveal the unique qualities of the Bourbon Whiskey. Deep, honey-amber hue with pronounced aromas of butterscotch, candied orange and apple; dry cacao and brown sugar envelop the tongue as the spirit lingers with notes of vanilla and white pepper.

Miner’s Manhattan

2oz Breckenridge Bourbon Whiskey
1/2oz Breckenridge Bitter
1/2oz sweet vermouth
2 dashes barrel-aged whiskey bitters
Stir top 4 ingredients with ice. Serve up.
Garnish: Luxardo cherry

2. Port Cask Finish Whiskey [90pf]

Our Port Cask Finish is a Best American Blended recipient at the World Whiskies Awards and a Double Gold Winner (96PTS) 2x at NYISC –  and that is no surprise. Our award-winning Bourbon Whiskey gets some final grooming in 59 gallon Tawny Port casks, adding aroma and flavor of sultana raisin and maple syrup, which round out and soften the naturally spicy finish. Thanks to the superior Tawny Port casks, each batch flaunts a unique expression.

Obi Wan Old Fashioned

2-1/2oz  Breckenridge Port Cask Finish Whiskey
1/2oz raw simple syrup*
2 dashes of barrel-aged bitters or Angostura Bitters
Stir with ice, strain over large ice cube.
Garnish: Luxardo cherry, orange

*Raw simple syrup: 1 cup sugar in the raw, 1 cup water. Simmer until dissolved.

3. Rum Cask Finish [90pf]

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.

May The Orchard Be With You

1-1/2 oz Breckenridge Rum Cask Finish
2 oz apple and pear allspice mix*
1 oz lemon juice
Shake with ice
Garnish: apple chip

*Apple and pear allspice mix: over medium heat add 8 oz sugar, 16 oz apple cider, 16 oz pear juice, 2 oz muddled allspice berries, 4 oz vanilla bean paste, 4 oz calvados. Stir to combine and let simmer until sugar is dissolved. Do Not Boil. Strain and let cool.

4. Breckenridge Distillers High Proof [105pf]

This is our highest proof whiskey and believe it or not, the High Proof drinks easier than our Breck Bourbon. This is a winner in our books. Our Blended Bourbon Whiskey, but with a twist, bottled at a gripping 105 proof. Get a chance to experience what our distillers taste as they blend: a wild ride through rich, dark caramel and toasted almonds, burnt Baker’s chocolate and dried orange peel, with a lingering finish of vanilla and spice. A masterful combination of mouthful flavors, furnish our Bourbon Whiskey to a deep, burnt orange hue. Try slowly adding water to enhance your experience.

Breckenridge High Smash

5. PX Sherry Cask Finish [90pf]

From the Andalusia province of Spain, a luscious dessert wine is produced from the shriveled raisins of the Pedro Ximenez (PX) grape. This highly viscous, syrupy, wine is aged in ancient solera barrels for decades before release. We acquired a selection of retired PX barrels from a solera hundreds of years old and filled them with our rich and spicy Bourbon Whiskey. Left to bask in these ripe, fruity vessels, our Whiskey emerged with complex layers of fig compote, orange marmalade, and licorice to complement the sweet oak and vanilla character of our world-renowned Bourbon Whiskey.
