The story behind it

The maker

Founded by Jess Graber in 2008 in Colorado, Tincup was created to embody the rugged spirit of the American West. Graber spent decades distilling and perfecting a mountain whiskey style that honored the state's early mining history.

How it is made

Tincup is a nod to the mining town of Tincup, Colorado, and the tin cups miners drank from after a long day in the shafts. It is distilled using a high-rye mash bill in Indiana, aged in charred American oak, and cut with pure Rocky Mountain artesian water in Colorado.

From Colorado, USA
