FIRESIDE BOURBON

A hearty Colorado bourbon, shaped by the Rocky Mountains.

A touch of sweetness from Colorado corn, with a balanced spice from rye and a hint of smoke from the American-sourced barley. We ferment our mash with home-grown yeast, then distill it in our custom copper still. Fireside is carefully aged in #3 char American white oak barrels resulting in its signature smoky flavor and aroma. Toasted oak fills the nose, while caramel and vanilla notes rest on the palate. Fireside finishes smooth and robust, like a great American bourbon should.


FIRESIDE PEACH

A full, robust whiskey, with a hint of peach.

Inspired by the popularity of peach-infused bourbon in our Denver tasting room, we set out to capture the same magic in a bottle. The result is “the flavored whiskey for the serious whiskey drinker.” Fireside Peach Whiskey provides subtle peach notes on the nose and palate, while staying whiskey-forward. The natural peach flavor complements our original Fireside Bourbon, maintaining the robust flavor and strength of the original 80-proof whiskey.


ELEVATE VODKA

A modern vodka. crisp, clean, smooth. simply satisfying.

Elevate Vodka combines non-GMO corn with filtered Rocky Mountain water for a true Colorado taste. The result of a 6 times distillation process, Elevate is a premium gluten-free vodka with a superior finish. Elevate Vodka is perfect for fruit infusions and smooth enough to enjoy on the rocks or straight up.


DENVER DRY GIN

Classic London dry style. complex flavors. perfectly balanced gin.

Our small-batch gin expands on the London Dry style with a complex flavor profile that includes juniper, lemon peel, orange zest, coriander, and grains of paradise. After macerating our natural botanicals, we distill in one of the few glass stills in the world to provide a balanced citrus and floral finish. Perfect in citrus-based cocktails, or classics like the Negroni, our Denver Dry Gin satisfies the gin enthusiast.


CUIDADO TEQUILA

The flavor of mexico. The taste of Colorado water. No need for lime or salt.

Cuidado Blanco Tequila provides a unique sensory experience with a sweet citrus aroma, spicy pepper notes on the palate, and earthy undertones before a remarkably smooth finish. We source our small-batch premium tequila from a family distillery in the prime Blue Weber Agave region of Jalisco, Mexico. We then bottle it with filtered Rocky Mountain water to give the taste of Colorado… Cuidado, where Mexico meets the Rocky Mountains.


PEG LEG RUM

Taste the tropics, without ever leaving the rocky mountains.

We start with raw brown sugar cane, then ferment the rum mash with our home grown yeast before distilling in our custom copper still. The result is a full-flavored white rum with a pleasantly sweet finish. Perfect for Mojitos in the summertime or classics like a Hemingway Daiquiri.
