TINCUP Whiskey has introduced the third iteration of its 'Fourteener Bourbon,' the brand's oldest expression. This series celebrates Colorado's highest peaks, with each release dedicated to a specific mountain. This year’s edition honors Mt. Sneffels, the "highest summit in the Sneffels Range of the Rocky Mountains, with its notable 14,147-foot peak featured on the bottle’s limited-edition packaging."
TINCUP Fourteener Release No. 3 is a "14-year-old straight bourbon whiskey, aged in new white American oak barrels and cut to proof with Eldorado Spring water; as a result, this bourbon boasts a rich flavor profile that includes notes of vanilla, sugar cookie, caramel, syrup, and butterscotch." Currently available for pre-order at $69.99, the bottle will be rolled out at select retailers across the United States in October. Overall, this limited release aims to provide a commemorative whiskey experience closely tied to Colorado's natural heritage.
