COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) To help celebrate the sesquicentennial of the City of Colorado Springs, Distillery 291 and other downtown businesses collaborated to make two limited-edition whiskeys.

Ferguson calls the flavor profile a journey. There’s this sweet and caramel and vanilla and middle fruity part and then it gets spicy, these are high proof whiskeys, said Freguson. For everyone involved it’s a way to connect this momentous occasion of the sesquicentennial to tighten the bonds within our community.
