This straight bourbon whiskey blend from Breckenridge Distillery marries carefully selected bourbon whiskeys at 86 proof, each drop infused with the pure, mineral-rich water that flows down from snow-capped summits.\n\nBreckenridge Distillery stands as a pioneer in Colorado's craft distilling renaissance, harnessing the unique terroir of the high country where thin air and dramatic temperature swings create an environment unlike any Kentucky rickhouse. Their master blenders draw from a library of straight bourbon whiskeys, each contributing its own character to create a harmonious expression that captures both tradition and the adventurous spirit of the American West.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Honey-drizzled cornbread, toasted oak, mountain wildflower honey, sweet vanilla bean, hint of alpine herbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel and butterscotch, charred oak spices, dried fruit leather, black pepper warmth, subtle chocolate undertones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium length with lingering oak tannins, warm baking spices, and a gentle fade of vanilla sweetness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpirit Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStraight Bourbon Whiskey Blend\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eABV\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43.0% (86 Proof)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAge Statement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo Age Statement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDistillery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBreckenridge Distillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBreckenridge, Colorado\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCountry\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSampling Sessions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ideal 50ml size for discovering Colorado bourbon without commitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTravel Companions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perfect airline-friendly bottle for hotel room nightcaps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGift Sets:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent addition to bourbon tasting flights or Colorado spirit collections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCampfire Sipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mountain-made bourbon for mountain adventures and outdoor gatherings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does Breckenridge Straight Bourbon taste like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBreckenridge Straight Bourbon delivers classic bourbon flavors with a Colorado twist - think honey-sweetened cornbread and vanilla on the nose, followed by caramel and oak spices on the palate. The Rocky Mountain water creates a clean, crisp profile that lets the bourbon's natural sweetness shine through without heavy char or overwhelming heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Breckenridge bourbon good for cocktails or neat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bourbon works beautifully both ways. At 86 proof, it has enough backbone for classic cocktails like Old Fashioneds and Boulevardiers, while remaining approachable enough to sip neat or with a splash of Colorado spring water. The balanced flavor profile makes it versatile for any bourbon application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I drink Breckenridge bourbon?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart neat to appreciate the mountain terroir, then experiment with a few drops of water to open up the flavors. The 50ml bottle is perfect for trying it multiple ways - neat, on the rocks, or in a simple whiskey and soda to highlight the clean Rocky Mountain water character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes Colorado bourbon different from Kentucky bourbon?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColorado's high altitude and extreme temperature fluctuations create unique aging conditions that extract different flavors from the oak. Breckenridge benefits from pure Rocky Mountain water and thin air that allows for more dramatic seasonal barrel expansion and contraction, often resulting in cleaner, brighter bourbon profiles compared to the richer, more traditional Kentucky expressions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the 50ml size worth trying?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely - this sample size lets you experience Breckenridge's mountain bourbon character without investing in a full bottle. It's perfect for comparing against other bourbons, travel, or as part of a Colorado spirits tasting. Many bourbon enthusiasts use these smaller bottles to explore new distilleries and regional styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou must be 21 years of age or older to purchase this product.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Breckenridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43350635348042,"sku":"BSBWB5C","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/6095\/7258\/files\/front_761121e5-4dec-4198-af22-e72015b17031.jpg?v=1772385038"}],"url":"https:\/\/theoldrickhouse.com\/collections\/breckenridge.oembed","provider":"The Old Rickhouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
