291 COLORADO

Located in beautiful Colorado Springs, Colorado, distillery 291 sits in the shadow of Pikes Peak. Owner and founding distiller Michael Myers, a former nyc fashion photographer with a love of whiskey and passion for the old west, aims to replicate the taste, smell and folklore of that time by creating a one-of-a-kind, bold and beautiful, Colorado whiskey. Myers grew up on family farms in Georgia and Tennessee in countrysides defined by rolling hills, horses, Jack Daniels and George Dickel. Myers built his original still from copper photogravure plates that he had once used to create enduring photographs, from western landscapes to the Chrysler Building. 291 Colorado Whiskey is distilled from beginning to end by hand, utilizing grains from the Colorado plains and water collected from Pikes Peak reservoirs.

Picture the Wild West. Leather, Dirt Roads, Cowboys, Mountains, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, and most of all, Whiskey. A mash bill similar to the distillery founders' all-time favorite rye whiskeys. With the help of deep charred American white oak barrels and toasted aspen staves to finish, this whiskey is given a distinct Colorado flavor reminiscent of a time long passed. 291 Colorado Rye Whiskey made from malted rye sour mash, distilled in a copper pot still, aged in American White Oak deep char barrels and finished with toasted Aspen Staves.

Nose: Simmering brown butter, hay and a sweet hint of marshmallow.

Palate: Sweet creamy mouthfeel - a nice counterbalance to the prominent cinnamon, allspice and black pepper.

Finish: Starts hot but quickly disappears with some menthol cooling notes. Good rye structure that lingers long after the sip is done,
