Boulder Spirits Peated Colorado Single Malt

We hand-selected this cask from Boulder Spirits in Colorado. The distillery was founded by Scotsman Alastair Brogan, who has brought Scottish whisky making traditions to the high peaks of the Colorado Rockies. This dry, high-elevation environment makes for bold and unique spirits.

We love heavily peated single malt, and this cask is one of the finest we’ve found in the U.S. made from 100% peated Scottish barley, this cask was aged for 5 years in a new oak cask. It is very smoky, with flavors of smoked figs, bacon-wrapped dates, bitter orange marmalade, and fresh-baked brownies.

Note: The high altitude of the Rockies also tends to result in high-proof spirits. This whiskey was bottled at its natural cask strength of 148.94 proof. At this proof, the whiskey should not be taken on aircraft and should ideally be stored upright and, as always, enjoyed responsibly.
