Stranahan’s Diamond Peak is a premium limited-edition American single malt whiskey, hand-selected from some of the distillery’s most mature barrels. The 2024 release continues the tradition of showcasing the best of Stranahan’s high-altitude aging, offering a bold, nuanced, and elevated take on Colorado single malt.
Crafted from 100% malted barley and aged in new American oak barrels at over 5,000 feet elevation in Denver, the Diamond Peak edition features a more complex flavor profile than the standard Stranahan’s, with deep oak influence and layered spice, fruit, and toasted malt notes.
