Tasting Notes

Breckenridge Rum Cask Finished Bourbon takes the distillery’s high-rye Rocky Mountain bourbon and gives it a secondary maturation in Caribbean rum casks. The nose opens with tropical sweetness, offering aromas of molasses, brown sugar, and toasted oak layered over vanilla. On the palate, it is smooth and rich, blending flavors of caramel, honey, and roasted nuts with hints of banana, spice, and dried fruit. The rum finish adds depth and a velvety sweetness, leading into a long, warming finish with lingering notes of toffee, oak, and tropical fruit.

Food Pairings

As a starter, pair it with grilled shrimp skewers, glazed nuts, or charred pineapple. For a main course, it complements jerk chicken, barbecued pork ribs, or roasted duck with a citrus glaze. In the cheese course, creamy brie, manchego, or aged cheddar balance its sweetness and spice. For dessert, it shines with banana bread, rum cake, or dark chocolate truffles.
