Breckenridge Distillery
The Breckenridge Distillery boasts the title of Highest Distillery in the World! It is also one of the most unique experiences in town. Whether you are devotee of the distillery arts, or are looking for something fun, you are sure to enjoy it. As Mark Twain once said, “Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough.” There are two locations in Breckenridge. The small tasting room on Main Street is great for trying the different spirits and stocking up. The main location on Airport Rd offers a full range of options, including tours of the facility. They take great pride in distilling a variety of Bourbons, Whiskey, Vodka, Gin as well as spiced Rum. They also have fun novelties, like “Break-Up Potion Chocolate Sauce” made with Bourbon.
The Distillery offers several different levels of in-depth experiences. Free tastings of their award-winning products and free group tours are available. Or you can experience a private VIP tour and tastings of products not available to the public. Learn about the unique ways they craft their whiskeys and bourbons. Do you know why bourbon is a Whiskey, but not all whiskey is a bourbon? Watch the distilling process, visit the barrel aging room, and of course see the bottling. The free tour is about 30 minutes, with a personalized tour lasting longer.
Their eclectic on-site restaurant is open for dinner only, serving tapas style food. One of our favorite restaurants in town! The dishes are small, delicious, and designed for sharing in the spirit of camaraderie. Be sure to try the Brussels sprouts and the deviled eggs, our favorites!
There are also venues available if you are planning a very special event during your trip to Breck. The Grand Barrel Room, lined with stunning oak barrels is a unique option for a wedding reception!
The luxurious Dark Arts Lounge is perfect for your more intimate gathering. The Lounge features exposed stone and wood around a dark leather couch seating area. Set in front of the Dark Arts Society whiskey lockers, it is lovely for a Bachelorette party.
If you are visiting in the summertime, enjoy their outdoor seating and private garden. The space can also house a tent for covered events. What better way to enjoy the art of distilling than with good company, over a stiff, tasty drink!
The Distillery also has a free shuttle which can come pick you up as well as take you back! An excellent amenity for those who don’t want to worry about anything but the experience.
Call 970-445-8613 to reach the shuttle and start your adventure!
