proofed for taste, not for speed

slow cut proofing

To proof our whiskeys, we spend weeks adding small increments of water (instead of days) to keep our liquid cool and save the delicate flavors our team works so hard to produce. It’s why we’ve deemed our whiskey Slow Cut™, and it’s why you can taste the quality in every sip.

HUMBLED TO
BE RECOGNIZED

Press & Awards

“The distillery utilizes Slow Cut method to craft its high-malt bourbon. That said, it’s the recent wheated releases by Old Elk that’ll really turn your head”

“Master distiller Greg Metze and Old Elk distillery are two names you need to know if you love whiskey.”

“Whether it’s distilling some of the smoothest spirits in the game or uplifting their communities when hard times hit, Old Elk Distillery continues to be a favorite on our shelves.”

“So much good whiskey is spilling from the snowy peaks of Colorado you have to question if it’s become the Kentucky of the Rockies.“
