TINCUP is a robust and spicy bourbon that's blended with pure Rocky Mountain water sourced by distilling legend Jess Graber. The whiskey derives its intense flavor from a mash profile rich in rye, a deliberate choice made by Graber due to his belief that most American Whiskey was too mild. At the forefront, TINCUP presents notes of pepper, cinnamon, and orange, which gradually transition to a smoother vanilla undertone and a concise, clean finish. Graber suggests enjoying it neat or with a single ice cube, but this intricate whiskey can also be incorporated into classic cocktails with ease. Named after a historic mining town from the gold rush era nestled in the Colorado mountains, TINCUP pays tribute to the state's earliest imbibers: the miners who settled in the rugged mountains and sipped their whiskey from tin cups. The bottle's cap doubles as a twist-off metal cup, adding an extra layer of homage to the whiskey's name and its origins.
