    Love that Colorado Selection!! I'll be interested to know what you think of the Branch & Barrel bourbon. I personally haven't tried them yet. Now Spirit Hound, Boulder, Deerhammer and of course Laws Whiskey...just epic! You have really picked some good ones there.
    Fun fact about the Fireside Bourbon from Mile High Spirits you saw (at about 18:50 in your vid): they do a 50/50 blend of their bourbon with MGP so they can offer it for about $30. But their other offerings like Bottled-in-Bond, Single Barrel, and other limited offerings are 100% their own whiskey.
    Just very passionate about Colorado and I love sharing.
    Great video and I look forward to seeing your others 😁😉🥃

      I knew I should have grabbed a bottle of the fireside! I love a good BiB!
      Loved the boulder and the Laws as well as the spirit hound! Didnt love the deerhammer bottle that I bought but would love to try there single malt.
      Haven’t gotten to the Branch & Barrel yet, but plan to soon!
      Thanks for the kind words man! Appreciate you watching and supporting! 👊🏽🥃

    I just finished a Woody Creek 8 year Rye out of Colorado. 130 proof but drank like 110, if that. And super flavorful. $65 for that Elijah Craig PB is nuts. Its always $80 around me. Binny's has had Potrero whiskey store picks for a few months now but I have not pulled the trigger on that one.

    The same person behind Anchor craft beer in San Francisco decided to make a pot stilled whiskey since there weren't any at the time in the US. Old Potero is that whiskey. It's a malted rye in a style from the 19th century. Very cool. They make a great gin called Junipero as well. Unfortunately the Anchor beer has been discontinued

    • @deankruse4491
