Tasting Profile & Food Pairings
Tasting Notes
The nose opens with warm notes of browned butter, dried dates, and a touch of cola sweetness. On the palate, layers of dark chocolate, plum, raisin, and fig unfold alongside hints of pastry and citrus peel. A silky texture carries these flavors into a long, lingering finish of butter crème, candied orange, and spiced dried fruit.
Food Pairings
Starter Smoked duck breast with orange glaze, matching the bourbon’s dried fruit and citrus tones.
Main Course Grilled venison or ribeye, where the whiskey’s chocolate, spice, and buttered pastry notes complement rich, gamey meat.
Cheese Aged cheddar or pecorino, whose sharpness contrasts the bourbon’s sweetness.
Dessert Pecan pie or chocolate bread pudding, echoing the whiskey’s nutty, buttery, and cocoa flavors.
Craftsmanship
Wyoming Whiskey is the first premium bourbon distillery in Wyoming, founded in 2006 in the small town of Kirby by the Mead family, fifth-generation ranchers with deep roots in the state. Their vision was to create a whiskey that not only rivaled established bourbon houses but also carried the spirit of the American West in every bottle. To achieve this, they partnered with Steve Nally, a veteran Master Distiller from Maker’s Mark, who brought decades of Kentucky expertise to Wyoming’s rugged terrain.
Every drop of Wyoming Whiskey is made using locally sourced ingredients: corn, wheat, barley, and rye grown in the Bighorn Basin, along with pure limestone-filtered water drawn from an ancient aquifer. The extreme Wyoming climate—cold winters, hot summers, and dramatic temperature swings—shapes the whiskey during maturation, producing bold flavors and a distinctive character that reflects its place of origin.
The brand has built its identity on authenticity and integrity, celebrating Wyoming’s open landscapes, ranching traditions, and pioneering spirit. Over the years, it has gained national recognition for both consistency and innovation, producing small batch, single barrel, and specialty releases that remain true to its roots. Wyoming Whiskey is more than just bourbon—it is a reflection of the land, the people, and the uncompromising character of the state it represents.
