With our fellow whiskey enthusiasts in mind, we selected this individual barrel of Laws Four Grain Straight Bourbon to be bottled at Cask Strength due to its noteworthy character and complex flavors. Our Laws Four Grain Bourbon story starts at two Colorado family farms where heritage corn and heirloom varietals of wheat, barley and rye are grown. Using our traditional, labor intensive distilling technique brings each grain’s individual character to life while the open-air, on-grain sour mash fermentation process adds soulful complexity. After a minimum of three years in 53 gallon charred white oak barrels influenced by our high altitude climate and mountain spring water, an entirely novel bourbon unfolds. The respective influence of our heirloom grains and microclimates of the San Luis Valley and Eastern Plains of Colorado are elegantly articulated in this single barrel of our Laws Four Grain.
