The store I work at HB Liquors has had some great barrel picks from copper and cask. We have a five year currently. Before that we had a 15 year canadian whiskey finished in cognac barrels at cask strength for only $55 that came in around 112 proof. Another local Colorado distiller to look for is copper sky. We have a 16 year barrel pick from them at a whopping 140 proof for $100 that drinks like it's 115 proof with a very in depth caramel apple and mint flavor. The biggest surprise has been rocker spirits right here in Littleton, Colorado. Their bourbon and their port finished bourbon are incredible for 3 years age and 96 proof. They released their rye first at the store I work at. It's aged 5 years which is the largest age statement they've put on a bottle and drinks like a dessert. Even in the summer heat I get glazed pecans, chai tea/ pumpkin pie, cherry pie filling, and dough. Most ryes including old forester rye did not maintain it's dough flavor in the Colorado summer heat. The rocker rye whiskey we have maintains its almost funky glazed pecan and dough flavor in the heat. Very impressive release even though my boss was under the impression it would be bottled at cask strength: 117 proof. It was given to us bottled at 96 proof but doesn't disappoint in any way. The color on this thing is amazing! More oily than a bottled in bond. It almost looks discolored like a honey barrel or something. Well after reading online the best reason I can find for the incredibly unique character of their whiskey is that they do a wheated mash bill with a locally sourced wheat. I think that means their rye is a wheated mash bill as well.

LOL...Trenton was SMASHED by the end of this. Definetly need to throw Knob Creek Single Barrel (120 proof) into that mix. Just picked up a Store Pick and it is FAN-TASTIC. Pretty affordable as well at $51.99. Never thought I would enjoy higher proof bourbons but Wild Turkey Rare Breed (116ish proof), Old Forester 1920 (115 proof) and (now) the Knob Creek Single Barrel (120 proof) are quickly becoming some of my favorites!
