Breckenridge PX Cask Finish Bourbon Whiskey
Breckenridge PX Cask Finish Bourbon Whiskey is a 90-proof (45% ABV), 750mL high-rye bourbon whiskey finished in retired Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry casks — distilled and bottled by Breckenridge Distillery in Breckenridge, Colorado — available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.
The bourbon starts as Breckenridge's high-rye recipe, aged a minimum of three years in new charred American oak. It then finishes in retired PX barrels pulled from a centuries-old solera in Andalusia, Spain — the region that produces Pedro Ximénez from sun-dried, raisin-like grapes into one of the world's luscious dessert wines. Those ancient casks layer dried-fruit depth over the bourbon's sweet-oak and vanilla core.
Tasting notes (official brand copy): fig compote, orange marmalade, and licorice, complementing sweet oak and vanilla; reviewers add almond butter, black licorice, ripe sultanas.
Why buy: A sherry-cask finish done the proper way — real solera-seasoned PX casks, not a finishing wine splash — on one of Colorado's flagship high-rye bourbons. Compare it with the Breckenridge core bourbon, or explore more bourbon whiskey at Del Mesa Liquor.
