This special offering of our Four Grain is the first bonded bourbon in Colorado history. True to the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897, this bourbon is at least 4 years old, a product of a single season, a single distiller and has been aged entirely in our federally-bonded rack house. Bottled at 100 proof, we find this Bourbon deeply complex with floral aromas and flavors of black tea, honey, orange peel, baked plums, and coffee cake leading to a lingering sweet cinnamon finish.

Critic reviews and blind-tasting competition results for this bottle.
Overall, this is a classic yet rustic bourbon. The nose is chocolaty, nutty, and sweet like a Reese's Cup. … The palate is spicier, offering black pepper, dried herbs, and barrel char alongside more sweet jammy fruit.
Spearmint and vanilla taffy lead on the nose, along with cinnamon and cloves, syrupy blackberries, and pepper. … The finish offers tannic oak, barrel char, leather, burnt caramel, and root beer.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
