Boulder Spirits Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a Colorado-made bourbon crafted by Vapor Distillery in Boulder, a producer known for combining American whiskey traditions with a distinctly Rocky Mountain influence. Using pure snowmelt water from the Colorado mountains and a mash bill that leans heavily on corn, this bourbon reflects both regional character and classic bourbon heritage.
The whiskey is distilled in a Scottish Forsyths copper pot still, a rare choice in American bourbon production, which adds weight and complexity to the spirit. It is then aged in new charred American oak barrels in Boulder’s unique high-altitude climate, where dramatic temperature swings accelerate interaction between spirit and wood.
In the glass, Boulder Spirits Straight Bourbon shows a deep amber hue. The nose opens with inviting aromas of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, accented by hints of honey and spice. On the palate, it is rich and full-bodied, delivering flavors of toffee, baking spice, roasted nuts, and a touch of dark fruit. The finish is long and warming, with lingering oak sweetness and gentle spice.
Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to reveal its complexity, this bourbon also works beautifully in spirit-forward cocktails such as an Old Fashioned or Manhattan. With its combination of Colorado terroir, Scottish equipment, and American tradition, Boulder Spirits Straight Bourbon Whiskey offers a unique and memorable take on classic Kentucky-style bourbon.
