august Whiskey Wednesday Event-the afterlife of oak: sustainability never tasted so good
ABOUT
Join us this August for a special Whiskey Wednesday celebrating National Rum Month and the flavorful second life of a whiskey barrel. This evening highlights the power of Colorado partnerships and the craft that connects great spirits.
The night begins with a cocktail featuring Marianne’s Promise—a rum Al Laws created as a promise to his wife, Marianne, when he set out to start a whiskey distillery because she preferred rum. Hear the story from Al himself, then join the Laws team and Montanya Rum’s Master Distiller, Megan Campbell, for an in-depth exploration of the barrel-aging journey: from its first fill with Laws Bourbon to its second act aging Montanya Rum in Crested Butte.
You’ll enjoy a guided side-by-side tasting of Laws Bourbon and Montanya’s barrel-aged rum, discovering how time and oak transform flavor. Together, we’ll explore how one barrel carries character, craft, and sustainability across multiple lifetimes.
