Brand Collection: 291 Colorado Whiskey

About

Nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, 291 is an award-winning small batch distillery . Founded in 2011 by a New York City fashion photographer Michael Myers who migrated to the Old West, moving to Colorado Springs. Growing up on a rural family farm in Georgia and Tennessee, Myers had the inspiration to create 291 Colorado Whiskey on the exact date of the 10-year anniversary of 9/11. Myers' previous life as a photographer permeates his newfound love for distilling, building his first still in 2011 using old photographic copper plates from his previous life to start making Whiskey . "Handmade the Colorado Way" the line of small-batch Whiskeys from Distillery 291 are finished with wood staves found in the mountains above his home.
