Description
A Decade of Colorado Craftsmanship
Old Elk Distillery has built a reputation for patience and precision, and the Straight Bourbon 10 Year is the fullest expression of that philosophy. Aged a full decade in new charred American oak barrels at their Fort Collins, Colorado distillery, this bourbon showcases the depth and complexity that only time can deliver. Master Distiller Greg Metze — with over 38 years of experience — brings an unmatched level of expertise to every barrel selected for this release.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Deep caramel and dark cherry open alongside toasted oak, vanilla cream, and a whisper of dried fruit and baking spice.
- Palate: Rich and velvety with layers of toffee, dark chocolate, cinnamon, and roasted nuts. The decade of aging brings a beautifully integrated oak structure without overpowering the sweetness.
- Finish: Long and warming with lingering oak, caramel, and a gentle spice that fades into a smooth, satisfying close.
