Projects like this are rare in the spirits world, but you can score one of the limited-release bottles that benefits local nonprofits this week.
On Friday, May 19, seven Colorado distilleries will release Colorado Distillers Collaboration Straight Wheat Whiskey., Old Elk Distillery, State 38 Distilling, Wood’s High Mountain Distillery and Woody Creek Distillers came together to create this special spirit; proceeds from its sale will benefit charities handpicked by each distillery.
In the brewing industry, collaborations are commonplace, whether it’s neighboring breweries, cross-country partnerships or even international collabs. Yet in many other beverage worlds, including that of spirits, it just doesn’t seem to happen often. Colorado Distillers Collaboration Straight Wheat Whiskey is available in very limited quantities beginning Friday, May 19.“The biggest question everyone had was, how can we do this legally?” he says. The distilleries contacted the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau and figured out the logistics, making sure the proper documentation and tax work were filed. Once that component was taken care of, participation solidified.
Each of the distilleries brought twenty gallons of spirits to Laws Whiskey house. Distilled from 100 percent Centennial wheat grown in the San Luis Valley, the spirits were blended in a mixing tank before aging for five years. “It could’ve been three or four years, or even seven years,” notes Smiley. But after everyone in the group tasted samples from the team at Laws, it was unanimous: the whiskey had the flavor profile that the distillers wanted.
