Wyoming Whiskey simply launched a limited-edition Powder River Straight Bourbon Whiskey, which continues the model’s annual Wyoming-only releases.
A press release from the distiller notes that this whiskey is produced from 19 hand-selected barrels of Wyoming Whiskey’s bourbon, which supply notes of spice, candy, and savory flavors.
In complete, Wyoming Whiskey can have 360 instances of Powder River accessible all through the state by the tip of June.

The whiskey’s namesake Powder River gathers itself in Northeast Wyoming and rumbles north into Yellowstone. The story goes, after crossing the river within the late 1800’s and placing a number of celebratory pistol rounds by way of the roof of a saloon, a cowboy coined the phrase, “Powder River, Let ‘er buck.”
Wyoming troops used the chorus within the Spanish American Struggle … and the saying continues to be used at this time, heard at Wyoming festivals, rodeos, and soccer video games.
Following the latest nationwide launch of their Wyoming Whiskey Nationwide Parks No. 2, Powder River continues to pay homage to Yellowstone’s a hundred and fiftieth anniversary, because the whiskey model will do all through the milestone 12 months.
“Our Wyoming-only releases are my favourite bourbons in our portfolio.” stated co-Founder David DeFazio. “It’s no coincidence that Powder River’s taste profile falls proper in my wheelhouse.”
He defined that Powder River is produced from 68 p.c corn, 20 p.c wheat, and 12 p.c malted barley. It’s bottled at 101 proof, 50.5% ABV. It has a advised retail worth of $70.
All of the grains for Wyoming Whiskey merchandise are grown in Wyoming and are non-GMO. The water used to supply Wyoming Whiskey can also be sourced from an area limestone aquifer that’s been underground for greater than 6,000 years.
