Colorado Gold Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Locally-sourced grains: corn, rye, wheat and malted barley. Cedaredge's unique geography and climate — the quaint city is situated 11,000 feet above sea level and enjoys mild, snowy winters and hot, dry summers — creates flavorful, plump grains that are perfect for distillation. "Corn is the main ingredient in our bourbon," says Michael Almy, a Colorado native and the master distiller at Colorado Gold. "The wheat and malted barley give the bourbon a smoother, more sophisticated taste and the rye adds a touch of spice."� Colorado Gold Straight Bourbon Whiskey earned the title "Best in Class"at the American Distilling Institute Competition in 2012, and the Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2013.

Distillery Information

"As with most micro-distilleries, it started with a dream," says Peter Caciola, the owner of Colorado Gold Distillery. Situated along the southern slopes of the Grand Mesa in Cedaredge, Colorado (est. population 2,151), Caciola's distillery is the product of years of late nights and intense labor by Caciola himself, and his wife, Tammy. "We first talked about distilling our own spirits a good number of years ago,"Caciola continues. "After we made our dream a reality, we started discussing the idea of producing a great bourbon. Bourbon is the most American of all the spirits, and we're in the heart of the country, so we thought it would be the perfect thing to make."�
