Alpine Gin
A New American style gin featuring juniper balanced with 12 other botanicals including coriander, lavender, angelica, and licorice root, with freshly zested lemon and orange creating a soft citrusy palate.
About
Founded in 2015 by Master Distiller Jeff Ruhle and based at 8,787 ft in the Colorado Rocky Mountains near Winter Park, Idlewild Spirits exclusively uses Colorado-grown grains that are milled at their distillery within hours before going into the mash tun. They distill, barrel, age, and bottle about 100 yards from Vasquez Creek, the same pristine mountain water they use in their stills, producing a range of small-batch grain-to-glass spirits.
Spirits
Barrel Aged Gin
A New American Gin aged in used bourbon barrels that softens the juniper notes and allows the 12 essential botanicals to pronounce themselves, with freshly zested citrus combining with barrel char for a complex, earthy finish.
Colorado Rye Whiskey
An undeniably smooth and approachable rye made from 93% rye and 7% barley with a Colorado-grown rye variety that offers rounded heat and a perfectly spiced, slightly sweeter palate rather than bold spiciness.
Colorado Single Malt Whiskey
A full-bodied single malt made from a ‘quadruple malt’ recipe of 100% malted barley, delivering rich aromas of caramel and chocolate, proudly mashed, fermented, distilled and aged in Winter Park, CO.
Hibiscus Gin
A gin infused with dried hibiscus flowers that gives it a deep scarlet hue, tart berry and citrus flavors, and the classic dry mouth-feel of red wine due to hibiscus tannins.
Purple Daze Gin
A visually striking gin with deep violet hues achieved through a floral steeping process, featuring a dozen botanicals including lavender and coriander with freshly zested citrus and a luxurious mouthfeel.
Rocky Mountain Vodka
Distilled nine times with Colorado corn and malted barley for a light sweetness and full-bodied luxurious mouthfeel, made with the distillery’s own spirits and mountain water that runs down from the national forest just yards away.
Woodcutter's Straight Bourbon
Aged with three different types of wood for incredible complexity, this signature bourbon features a mash bill of 60% corn, 20% wheat, 10% rye, and 10% barley using locally sourced Colorado grains for a deep grain flavor.
