  • WHY: This is real deal, grain-to-glass, pot-distilled farm Bourbon, aged for five years in the Leopold’s government-bonded warehouse, and it beautifully bridges the gap between the grainy, spice-laden flavors of small production whiskies and the richness and sweetness you expect from your favorite Kentucky Bourbon. It’s impeccably balanced and complex from front to back, finishing very soft and very smooth.
  • HOW: Using 65% local corn, 21% in house-malted barley, and 15% heritage rye, the custom-mash creates a creamy, malty, and very distinct flavor profile, imparted with fruit from the open-top, native yeast, cold fermentation that coaxes out every enticing flavor over 120 hours, more than twice the fermentation time of many other producers. The Bourbon is also pot-distilled, rather than column distilled, so the whiskey truly tastes more like the mash itself than the new charred oak it was aged in.
  • WHAT: Todd and Scott Leopold originally built their distillery in Ann Arbor, Michigan, but soon moved to Denver, Colorado for better access to grains. Everything they make is from scratch. 100% of the grains used for their spirits are floor malted by hand, meaning rye, wheat, and barley. With the exception of their grape-based absinthe and maraska cherry liqueur, all of their base spirits are made in house. Todd Leopold is also a professional maltster, selling in-house malted grains to many of the nation’s top craft breweries.

I have a love hate relationship with Colorado whiskeys

I have tried several Colorado whiskeys this year with varying degrees of success, and I really want to like them. 291, two versions of Breckenridge, Stranahan's gold label, Laws, some small distillery in Wheat Ridge (and Marble with a great coffee liqueur). The water is something special, the altitude seems to do something special as well. With 291, the Aspen staves are amazing. I love 291 and Stranahan's. Breckenridge and Laws are middle of the pack. Leopold lags behind IMHO. There's something "grainy" about it, like Grape Nuts cereal. There's better choices out there, like 291. Or even a bottle of OF 1910 or 1921.
